INTRODUCTION
Section 5 of this handbook contains all the performance information
required to operate the airplane safely and to help you plan your flights
in detail with reasonable accuracy. Safe and precise operation of the
airplane requires the pilot to be thoroughly familiar with and understand
the data and calculations of this section.
The data on these graphical and tabular charts have been compiled from
actual flight tests, with the airplane and engines in good condition, using
average
pilot techniques. Note that the cruise performance data makes no
allowance for wind and/or navigational errors. Allowances for start, taxi,
takeoff, climb, descent and 45 minutes reserve at the particular cruise
power are provided in the range profile chart.
To determine pressure altitude at origin and destination airports, add
100 feet to field elevation for each .1 inch Hg. below 29.92 or subtract
100 feet from field elevation for each .1 inch Hg. above 29.92.
