British Aerospace Jetstream 41

[Christopher Low 5,336]

Can anyone tell me the take off distance required for a Jetstream 41 with a 50% fuel load (and no passengers or cargo)? I'm not interested in safety margins here, by the way. I want to know the calculated distance required for the plane to become airborne, without worrying about flight safety regulations or other real world factors.

Average distance in passenger service is around 5K ft I believe..NOT counting all the variables that need to go into calculating actual take off distance,and in a forgiving virtual FS world, I'd say within 3000 ft. Edit; Removed speculation on shortest possible distance, just no way to figure without doing the real world calculations at the time of attempt.

That sounds like a reasonable estimate to me, Staggerwing. Thanks for your input :-wave
