Is density altitude accounted for on takeoff performance charts
Asked by: Andres Naccarelli 3042 views General Aviation
Hi guys, Im new to the forum. Im 23 years old, im from Connecticut living in Buenos Aires, Argentina. I hold a private pilot licence i obtained in argentina. The title says it all pretty much... Im flying a Cessna 172M 1974 and i noticed in the POH the takeoff distances does not say anything about density altitude. I assume the altitudes that are given are pressure altitude, but from what i understand density altitude is what directly affects Rate of climb, increased takeoff distance etc. To make it short and no so redundant my question is density altitude accounted for in the takeoff roll charts. Il leave a link to the POH of the aircraft. Thanks! http://www.pennyanflyingclub.com/avionics-pdf/Cessna-172M-POH.pdf
