- Nota adicional1
- The difference between roll and bank is that roll is movement whereas bank suggestes a fixed attitude of the aircraft. Consequently, a turn might be expressed in angles of bank: 'turn at a bank angle of 30º', and the movement to obtain the bank might be expressed as roll: 'roll the aircraft to the left'.
- Contexto
- The position of the aeroplane shall be recorded relative to the runway from a point at least 7.4 km (4 NM) from threshold during the approach and at least 11 km (6 NM) from the start of roll during take-off.
