... 7 2 REVIEW OF SMALL AIRCRAFT PERFORMANCE LITERATURE This section presents a literature review to support the objectives of ACRP Project 03-54 – Small Aircraft Runway Length Analysis Tool. We surveyed appropriate guidance, available research, other information on aircraft runway performance certification, aircraft operations, technical papers on aircraft runway performance prediction.
