Now is it possible for you forward me some more additional info on the landing gradient and the related curves / graphs please.

As the information that I have received is that the landing angle is 0 Degree 41'15". or 1.2% gradient

  1. huh, what are you talking about?


  2. Really not sure what you're asking, but the standard glideslope is at 3 degrees, sometimes steeper according to obstructions.  However, I vaguely feel you're asking about what obstructions you can put under the approach lane.  If that's so, you need to speak to the civil aviation people.

  3. This is a follow up to the landing angle (Glide angle):

    The main thing about it is that you need to take in to consideration both glide angle and the angle of attack (or pitch up angle), usually the angle of attack is about 7 degree but it can also change and can be 0 degree to even 15 degrees.

    "0 Degree 41'15". or 1.2% gradient". Must be final angle just before touch down, so the plain will fall to the ground from few feet above the ground.

    Please note, all these angles are feathered up or down from normal to achieve smooth landing, in both cases (instrument or visual).

    You need to determine worst case scinario and clear the roof by few hundred ft.

  4. are you drunk or what?
