FOREWORD For some time Annex 14-Aerodromes specified that the length of a runway should be corrected to account for the effect of local factors such as eleva- tion, temperature and slope, on the take-off distances required by aeroplanes. Methods for correcting for elevation and temperature had been previously agreed and included in the Annex. No methods had been agreed for correcting for slope. This fact was noted by the Seventh Session of the Aerodromes, Air Routes and Ground Aids AGA Division at its meeting in 1962. It was considered that a study of the problem could result in the development of one standard method for cor- rection and the following recommendation was made RECOMMENDATION 2/6 - RUNWAY SLOPE EFFECT AIRCRAFT OPERATIONS That 1 a complete study of the effect of slopes on runway take-off distances based on assumptions acceptable to all Contracting States be made in order to achieve a uniform criterion for runway length correction factors and 2 theresultsofthatstudybeconsideredfor incorporation in Annex 14, as a specification or guidance material. To undertake the study a large amount of detailed information on aero- plane characteristics was required. The use of a computer was also considered necessary because of the number of variables involved and the numerous possible combinations of runway slopes. It was decided to engage the services of the University of California, Berkeley, California, to undertake the study. Work began in June 1966 and was completed in August 1968. The following report was prepared by G. Ahlborn and R. Horonjeff of the university. The Fifth Air Navigation Conference, meeting in November/December 1967,had available a preliminary report prepared by the university. This pre- liminary report enabled the conference to make a recommendation for amendment of Annex 14 to include a correction factor for runway slope. The conference recognized that its recommendation might need modification in the light of the final report of the miver sity. The conference also recommended, Re comrnenda - tion 3/3, that the final report be distributed to States. This circular is prepared in accordance with the action set forth in Recommendation 3/3. The contents of this circular reflect the views of its authors and not necessarily the views or policies of ICAO.
