1.12.2 Flight Performance and Flight Planning
DEMONSTRATED Crosswind component
The maximum speed of the crosswind component
at
which the maneuverability of the airplane
during
take-off and landing has been
effectively
demonstrated during test flights.
Service ceiling
The altitude at which the maximum rate of climb is
0.5 m/s (100 ft/min).
1.12.3. Powerplant
RPM
Number
of revolutions per minute:
the number of engine
revolutions per minute
, divide by 2.4286 (912 ULS3)
to obtain the
number of propeller revolutions per minute.
Throttle Lever
The lever which controls the engine power
, and
therefore the
manifold absolute
pressure (MAP).
Propeller Lever
Regulation of the propeller pitch setting:
this is a control
lever
that allows to set the propeller pitch
, and as a consequence
, the
engine RPM
.
Tachometer
Indicates the number of revolutions per minute of the engine.
The instrument is connected directly to the engine via a flexible
hose.
Cylinder Head Temp. (CHT)
Indicates the head temperature of the cylinder
n° 3.
Exhaust Gas Temp. (EGT)
Indicates the temperature of the gas that are expelled directly
from the cylinders.
MAP
Manifold pressure display
:
Indicates the engine absolute
manifold pressure.
Fuel Pressure
Fuel pressure indicator
Voltmeter
Indicates the battery load
Water temp.
Indicates the cooling water temperature
Oil Temp.
Indicates the engine oil
temperature
