I have a question for you aero majors out there. If I have a known data point for a RV-4, like gross weight, 65 degrees, SL, no wind takeoff distance. Can I extrapolate the required takeoff distance for different temps and headwinds/tailwinds? Are there formulas for this or is the only way to get this data is through flight test? I don't think I can just add or subtract 17% for each 10 knots of tailwind/headwind. I'm guessing it is more complicated than that. Also, how about temp changes? The point of all this is that I have a runway with a perfered takeoff direction. I can use it in both directions but much rather taking off toward an open field vs obstructions. I want to be able to figure out how much tailwind I can accept before I need to use the opposite direction. Also, how does this apply to landing distances and 50 ft obstacle distances. I understand that turf vs asphalt will be different. I will only compare apples and apples. Thanks.
