Introduction
This chapter provides information on aircraft's airspeed calibration, stall speeds and general perfor-
mance. All data published was obtained from test flight analysis. Test pilots were instructed to con-
trol the plane simulating average pilot's flying skills.
Airspeed indicator calibration
Pitot tube's ingenious mounting and construction makes IAS to CAS correction values insignificant.
Therefore pilots should regard IAS to be same as CAS. IAS = CAS.
Stall speeds
Stall speeds at are as follows:
Configuration:
single pilot (220 kg)
two pilots (350 kg)
Take-off performance
All data published in this section was obtained under following conditions:
elevation: 100 meters
wind: calm
runway: dry grass runway with low-cut grass
ICAO standard atmosphere
Takeoff runway length may vary depending on the wind, temperature, elevation and
wing & propeller surface condition.
