The maximum diversion distance used to establish the area of operation may be

obtained from
this chart.
Method:
Enter the chart with the appropriate speed and weight at the point of diversion.
Select the
appropriate time.
Read off the maximum diversion distance.
Example 5
Fill in the diversion distances to a diversion airfield from any point on track,
given the following
table of speeds, weights and approved times:
Speed M/
KIAS
Div. Wt.
1000 kg
120 min 135 min 150 min 180 min
.70/280 45
.74/290 55
.74/310 70
.74/330 38
LRC 60

In-flight Diversion (LRC) - One Engine Inoperative
Refer to CAP 697 Figure 4.7.3
This graph is a simple method of determining the fuel required and time for the
flight from
a diversion point to a selected alternate. It is based upon one engine inoperative
and NO
pressurization failure, with the aircraft drifting down to cruise at its selected
level.
Example 6
The one-engine-inoperative, LRC, diversion distance to the alternate is 940 NM at a
weight of
60 000 kg; wind component 50 kt head, cruise FL260 and ISA Dev. +20C. Determine
the fuel
required and diversion time.
Enter the graph with the diversion distance, move vertically to the WIND REF LINE
and follow
the curved flow lines to the value 50 Head.
From this position go vertically to the PRESSURE ALTITUDE 1000 ft slope of 26 and
move
horizontally to the WEIGHT AT POINT OF DIVERSION REF LINE.
Follow the curved flow lines to intercept the 60 000 kg value and from here go
horizontally to
extract the FUEL REQUIRED .................... kg.
Return to the intersection of the vertical distance/wind line with the PRESSURE
ALTITUDE.
1000 ft slope of 26 and continue vertically to intercept the second PRESSURE
ALTITUDE.
1000 ft slope of 26 and move horizontally to the ISA DEV (C) REF LINE.
Follow the temperature slope and read off the
time...............h..........h.........min.
(Note: The solid line = 6000 ft, the dashed line = 26 000 ft, therefore,
interpolation is required).
Example 7
The One-engine-inoperative, LRC diversion distance to the alternate is 400 NM at a
weight of
60 000 kg; wind component 100 kt tail, cruise FL60 and ISA Dev. +10C. Determine
the fuel
required and diversion time.
...................kg ...............h..........h..........min
Example 8
Given: Distance from CP to diversion 800 NM, wind component 25 head, weight at CP
55 000
kg. Calculate:
The fuel required for an engine and pressurization failure diversion; outside air
temperature
at cruise level is +5C with forecast icing ................... kg
The fuel required for a pressurization failure diversion; temperature at cruise
level is +5C
with forecast icing ................... kg
The fuel and time for a LRC engine failure diversion at FL220, OAT
-19C .....................kg
................hr...............hr................min
