gust factor

[CallmeJB]

My company (121 CRJ) uses Ref + 1/2 the gust factor or Ref + 5, whichever is higher. No correction for steady state.

Just my $.02

Maybe I'm stupid, but why would you add to ref for steady state wind? Do the manuals that show that give you shorter RW numbers for landing with a headwind? I hope not.

One half the wind gust, up to 10 knots.

So I'm dyslexic, tool.

Can't claim to be dyslexic if you can spell it.
