redfish Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 You sure on those temps input into the CDU? You put 26 for temps for all of the altitude blocks? Isn't the OAT fluctuating between +1 and -3 degrees and isn't that input into the LASTE as you pass the relevant altitude? IIRC, it's approximately a decrease of 1.98 degrees C every 1000ft or so in altitude. Ground level would have a temp of 26 degrees C 9000 ft wouldn't have a temp of 26 degrees C 24,000 ft wouldn't have a temp of 26 degrees C 26 doesn't sound right. Would you just make a note of the temps as you climb climb to altitude.

Maybe I have to check CDU on reaching those altitudes as there is no source of information to vet your claim.

Would you just make a note of the temps as you climb climb to altitude. My guess (educated, but totally unaware of how A-10 crews do this stuff,) would be that they would use the day's meteorological forecasts to determine winds and temperatures aloft. The temperature lapse rate depends on the day, and is only 2C per 1000ft on a "standard day." I do agree that it would make no sense to input 26C for each "layer."
