The mission profile for a 4-engine jet aircraft consists of the following segments: engine start and warm-up, taxi, take-off, climb to an altitude of 20000 ft followed by a cruise distance of R₁ nm at 350 kts, climb to an altitude of 35000 ft, followed by a cruise distance of R2 nm at 450 kts descent to 10000ft followed by one hour loiter and flight to an alternate airport at R3 nm distance both at 250 kts, descent to landing approach condition followed by the final landing, taxi and shutdown. The total distance during the cruise segments and flight to an alternate airport is restricted to a maximum of 5100 nm. Based on the existing manufacturers' data you may use the information provided in Table QA-1.
