NOTE
For flight planning, the difference between cruise altitude and cruise pressure altitude has been ignored.
Calculations for flight time, block speed and fuel requirement:
Cruise Climb:
Enter the graph for CRUISE CLIMB at 15°C to 5,650 ft and to 2650 lbs. Enter at -5°C to 11,500 ft and to
2650 lbs. Read:
Time to Climb = (21.1 - 8) = 13.1 min
Fuel Used to Climb = (4 - 1.5) = 2.5 gal
Distance Traveled = (39 - 14) = 25 NM
The cruise power setting is assumed to be at 2050 rpm. Since cruise at 11,500 feet requires full throttle.
The manifold pressure and fuel flow may be read from either the cruise power setting table for 139 HP
or 120 HP.
The temperatures for cruise are presented for a standard day (ISA); 20°C (36°F) above a standard day
(ISA + 20°C); and 20°C (36°F) below a standard day ((SA - 20°C). These should be used for flight
planning. The IOAT values are true temperature values which have been adjusted for the compressibility
effects IOAT should be used for setting cruise power while enroute.
Enter the graph for ISA conversion at 11,500 feet and the temperature for the route segment:
DEN-PUB OAT = -5°C
ISA Condition = ISA + 3°C
PUB- TBE OAT = 0°C
ISA Condition = ISA + 8°C
TBE-DHT OAT = 9°C
ISA Condition = ISA + 8°C
DHT-AMA OAT = 10°C
ISA Condition = ISA + 18°C
