File Landing Performance Factors.jpg thumb An aircraft on short finals at Boeing Field, Seattle The performance data for landing an aircraft can be obtained from the aircraft s flight manual or pilot s operating Handbook. The actual landing performance of an aircraft is affected by many variables which must be taken into account. Factors affecting Landing performance Weight The weight of an aircraft is one of the basic factors that determines the length of the landing roll of an aircraft. An increase in weight increases the stall speed of an aircraft. Stall is a reduction in the lift coefficient generated by a wing as angle of attack increases. Therefore, the minimum approach speed is much higher in case of heavier aircraft s.

Ross s Landing is the former name of Chattanooga, TN . It was named for John Ross Cherokee chief John Ross , the Principal Chief of the Cherokee Nation . In 1816 Ross settled at the site along the Tennessee River above Chattanooga Creek and established Ross s Landing as a trading post . Ross also operated a swing ferry across the river that was anchored on McClellan Island. In 1837 1838 Cherokee removal began, known as the Trail of Tears . The Cherokee were driven from their homes in several southeastern states and were relocated at various camps, including Ross s Landing, for expulsion to Oklahoma. As a result, the name of Ross s Landing was changed to Chattanooga by the U.S. Post Office in 1838. Today, Ross s Landing has been memorialized as a river park on the banks of the Tennessee River where the city of Chattanooga was established.
