71. Performance planning — aeroplanes

An AOC holder must take into account the following factors when developing procedures for a small aeroplane to perform its intended operations safely:

the mass of the aeroplane;

the aeroplane configuration;

the aeroplane operating techniques;

the operation of aeroplane systems which may have an adverse effect on performance;

the runway gradient;

the condition of runway;

the water surface state, where relevant;

the pressure altitude and temperature;

any wind;

any other environmental conditions which may have an adverse effect on performance;

the accuracy of the charts and other data used.

When developing procedures for obstacle avoidance during take‑off, landing and balked landing, of a small aeroplane, the AOC holder must take into account aerodrome obstacle data.
