Pilot Test ZoneWhat shall be the effects of changes in ambient temperature on the performance of the aircraft if all other parameters remain unchanged
- The increase in temperature would reduce the distance required for takeoff
- The temperature drop will increase the gradient of the climbCorrect answer
- The increase in temperature would reduce the distance required for takeoff and landing
- The temperature drop will increase the distance required for takeoff
Explanation
A drop in ambient temperature increases air density.
