- Contexto
- The bank angle of a deviating aeroplane may vary with the flight management system of its aeroplane, with the deviation angle, and with the aeroplane’s longitudinal distance from its next reporting point when it begins to turn back toward its cleared route. In the absence of empirical data, a uniform distribution over a small range of angles (perhaps 10 or 15 degrees) may suffice to describe the bank angle.
