The dynamic reponse of a P-3 aircraft and a light twin-engine turboprop to a low-level microburst encounter is modeled. The response to the microburst is depicted for various escape maneuvers. Plots of altitude, velocity, and specific energy are shown for all cases. Takeoff escape strategies are discussed. The optimal escape procedure is found to be flying a constant value of pitch angle. Constant angle of attack maneuvers sometimes result in superior performance.
