Q5 Dopilots have the authority to fly faster if their plane departed late to make upthe lost time? A5 Vishnu Ravi,Aerospace Engineer |Aviation Enthusiast & Content Creator Jun 21 In the realm oftime management for pilots, there exists a delicate balance between making up for lost time andadhering to various constraints. While pilots possess the ability toenhance their speed, they must also abide by air traffic regulations, speedlimits, and predetermined flight routes. When confronted with delays, pilots can minimize groundtime by tactfully reducing taxiing duration. Additionally, theyhave the flexibility to adjust their altitude in pursuit of calmer weatherconditions, potentially mitigating the impact of headwinds. Nonetheless, it iscrucial to acknowledge that external elements, such as wind speed anddirection, significantly influence flight duration. Should a delaysurpass the 50-minute mark, the scope of time that can be recuperated whileairborne becomes inherently limited. Consequently,pilots lack the jurisdiction to exceed the established limits imposed by airtraffic regulations, speed limits, and predefined routes, even if theirdeparture was delayed, in order to regain the time lost. My note- A few years back my indigo fight wasdelayed by 20 minutes from Bangalore to come to Chennai. But the pilot announcedhe would make up and reach in time. Normal flighttime is 45 minutes. But the pilot landed in Chennai, 5 minutes before scheduledarrival. Only thing I could note was landing wasfrom a different direction. Probably he would have permission to take adifferent route. The speed was little high. All the above QA are from Quora website on 11-08- 2023. Quora answers need not be 100% correct answers . Compiled and posted by R.
