Abstract

U završnom radu definirani su pojmovi istrajnosti leta zrakoplova i sigurne istrajnosti leta zrakoplova. Prikazane su metode proračuna istrajnosti leta zrakoplova za kategorije zrakoplova SEP1 i MEP1. Definirane su Točka sigurnog povratka i Točka jednakog vremena. Izvedeni su izrazi za proračun Točke sigurnog povratka i Točke jednakog vremena, te je objašnjena metoda proračuna tih točaka pomoću Navigacijskog računala E6-B. Kako bi se prikazao položaj Točke sigurnog povratka i Točke jednakog vremena na konkretnoj ruti leta, proračunata je ruta leta između Međunarodne zračne luke Zagreb (LDZA) i Zračne luke Hamburg (EDDH). Za proračun su korišteni podaci o letnim karakteristikama i performansama zrakoplova Piper PA-44 Seminole objavljeni u Pilotskom priručniku zrakoplova za taj zrakoplov.

Abstract (english)

In the Final Paper, terms of Endurance and Safe Endurance of the aircraft are defined. The methods for calculation of Endurance of the aircraft categories SEP1 and MEP1 are also shown. Further more, Point of No Return and Point of Equal Time are defined. Next, equations for calculation of Point of No Return and Point of Equal Time are derived and is also explained the method for calculation of these points with Flight Computer E6-B. To show the position of Point of No Return and Point of Equal Time on specific flight route, the flight route between Zagreb Intenational Airport (LDZA) and Hamburg Airport (EDDH) is calculated. For calculation, flight characteristics and performances data of aircraft Piper PA-44 Seminole published in Pilot's Operating Handbook, are used.
