PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH THE PRESENCE OF WATER, SLUSH, SNOW AND ICE ON RUNWAYS
It has always been difficult to estimate exactly the influence of the runway condition on the take-off and landing distance of airplanes. This problem has been aggravated by the jets entering the air traffic, for fast jets have high wing loadings and, therefore, high take-off and landing speeds. At...

It has always been difficult to estimate exactly the influence of the runway condition on the take-off and landing distance of airplanes. This problem has been aggravated by the jets entering the air traffic, for fast jets have high wing loadings and, therefore, high take-off and landing speeds. At high ground speeds, the runway contamination changes the value of the tire-to-surface friction coefficient. The contamination may further increase the drag in consequence of the forces required for fluid displacement. Finally, the hydrodynamic forces acting on the wheels in slush or water can, at high speeds, lift the tires completely off the ground. All these conditions have been examined thoroughly in tests and calculations. The report gives a survey on the latest investigations and on the consequences for practical flying operation which follow these results and for which appropriate safety precautions must be taken.
