NOTE
Distances shown are based on zero wind. Fuel for start, taxi
and take-off not included. Add 10% to the time, fuel and
distance for each 10° C (12° F) increase in OAT. The climb
rates (ROC) are the average climb rates from sea level to the
altitude indicated in the tables.
Example:
OAT at take-off. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 11°C (52°F)
Airfield pressure altitude. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2000 ft (600 m)
Initial climb weight . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1900 kg (4189 lb)
OAT at cruise . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . -17° C (2° F)
Cruise altitude . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 16000 ft (4900 m)
Time, fuel and distance to climb at airfield: 2 min, 0.5 US gal and 2 NM (1)
Time, fuel and distance to climb at cruise: 14 min, 4.2 US gal and 22 NM (2)
Subtract (1) from (2) to obtain time, fuel and distance to climb from airfield to cruise:
Time to cruise altitude: 14 min - 2 min = 12 min
Fuel to cruise altitude: 4.2 US gal - 0.5 US gal = 3.7 US gal
Distance to cruise altitude: 22 NM - 2 NM = 20 NM
