The Operating Environment and Aircraft Performance

When the weather was too hot with the temperature reaching 49 degrees or higher, the flight had to be delayed. The reason was simply that the plane was too hot to take off. For large Boing or Airbus, the maximum operating temperature is about 53 degrees Celsius, while smaller planes can only operate when the temperature does not exceed 48 degrees Celsius. hot air will have a lower density than cold air, so the aerodynamic lift when hot will also be lower than cold. The speed of the aircraft's take-off must be faster when it is hot to achieve the required aerodynamic lift. The lower the air density, the faster an airplane must travel to produce enough lift to take off. These hotter temperatures will reduce air density and make it much more likely weight restrictions are needed for flights taking off during the hottest parts of the day. The number of passengers and cargo that an airplane can carry in extreme heat is often limited. By removing passengers, luggage and cargo. This is referred to as a weight restriction.


In the future, these situations will become more and more frequent because of the increasingly complex climate change situation, the rapidly increasing global temperature. Blocking hot air is not possible. In order for airlines to minimize damage as well as keep passengers safe. It is necessary to check the temperature and monitor the weather forecast. From there, there are solutions such as flight cancellation or flight delay. Besides, opening a longer runway is also a measure.
