Abstract

The Take-Off Performance Monitor (TOPM) reviewed in this paper has the capacity to detect and declare performance deficiencies during the ground roll by considering critical take-off lengths, current achieved acceleration and engine health. The Mass Momentum Method (MMM) and the Simplified Gross Thrust Method (SGTM) are proposed as suitable methods to compute in-flight gross thrust.
