FAA/AIMS question. I can't find this answer?

Takeoff and landing distance, length of planned runways, services available at those airports, weather expected at those airports. Theres really no one correct answer to this because of the FAA's caveat about "all information pertinent to the safety of the flight."

However the FAR/AIM specifically mentions in 91.103 Preflight Action (regarding performance and airports) runway lengths at airports of intended use, takeoff and landing distance airport elevatiosn, runway slope, aircraft gross weight, wind, and temperatures.

§ 91.103 Preflight action.

Each pilot in command shall, before beginning a flight, become familiar with all available information concerning that flight. This information must include—

(a) For a flight under IFR or a flight not in the vicinity of an airport, weather reports and forecasts, fuel requirements, alternatives available if the planned flight cannot be completed, and any known traffic delays of which the pilot in command has been advised by ATC;

(b) For any flight, runway lengths at airports of intended use, and the following takeoff and landing distance information:

(1) For civil aircraft for which an approved Airplane or Rotorcraft Flight Manual containing takeoff and landing distance data is required, the takeoff and landing distance data contained therein; and

(2) For civil aircraft other than those specified in paragraph (b)(1) of this section, other reliable information appropriate to the aircraft, relating to aircraft performance under expected values of airport elevation and runway slope, aircraft gross weight, and wind and temperature.

I have an older FAR book, but the numbers should be the same. Check FAR 91.103 specifically (b) 1 and (b) 2. I think what you're looking for is that you are required to know if your plane can take off and land at the airport you want to go to given all of the various factors.

#2 is correct. They want you essentially to know, can we land here? If we can, how long is our landing distance? If we land, can we take off? Whats our takeoff distance? What other factors do we need to take into account. Runway slope, prevailing winds, runway condition, terrain etc are all things a pilot would need to verify as good to go before we go.

I think it may be, you need to know runway length for all airports you may be visiting, and you need to do a weight and balance. If I had my hard copy of my pre-solo, I could tell you with certainty.
