5.1 GENERAL
All of the required (FAA regulations) and complementary performance
information applicable to this aircraft is provided by this section.
Performance information associated with those optional systems and
equipment that require handbook supplements is provided by Section 9
(Supplements).
5.3 INTRODUCTION - PERFORMANCE AND FLIGHT PLANNING
The performance information presented in this section is based on
measured Flight Test Data corrected to I.C.A.O. standard day conditions and
analytically expanded for the various parameters of weight, altitude,
temperature, etc.
The performance charts are unfactored and do not make any allowance for
varying degrees of pilot proficiency or mechanical deterioration of the aircraft.
This performance, however, can be duplicated by following the stated
procedures in a properly maintained airplane.
Effects of conditions not considered on the charts must be evaluated by the
pilot, such as the effect of soft or grass runway surface on takeoff and landing
performance, or the effect of winds aloft on cruise and range performance.
Endurance can be grossly affected by improper leaning procedures, and inflight
fuel flow and quantity checks are recommended.
REMEMBER! To get chart performance, follow the chart procedures.
