ARROW I1
Short Field, Obstacle Clearance:
Lower flaps to
25"
(second notch), accelerate aircraft to
60-65
MPH and ease back on the wheel
to rotate. After breaking ground, accelerate to best angle of climb speed,
85
MPH, select gear
"up"* and continue climb while accelerating to best rate of climb speed,
100
MPH, and slowly
retract the flaps while climbing out.
Soft Field, Obstacle Clearance:
Lower flaps to
25"
(second notch), accelerate aircraft, pull nose gear off as soon as possible and
lift off at lowest possible airspeed. Accelerate just above the ground to best angle of climb speed,
85
MPH, select gear "upw* and climb past obstacle clearance height. Continue climb while
accelerating to best rate of climb speed, 100 MPH, and slowly retract the flaps.
Soft Field, No Obstacle:
Proceed
as
above after gear retraction, continue climb at best rate of climb speed,
100
MPH,
and slow retract the flaps.
*If desired, on aircraft equipped with backup gear extender, the "Override Engaged" position can
be selected and latched before takeoff. The gear will now retract as soon as the gear selector switch
is placed in the "up" position. Care should be taken not to retract the gear prematurely, in event
aircraft should settle back onto the runway. If the override lock is used for takeoff, disengage as
soon as sufficient terrain and obstacle clearance is obtained, to return the gear system to normal
operation.
CLIMB
The best rate of climb at gross weight will be obtained at
95
MPH with gear down and
100
MPH
with gear up. The best angle of climb may be obtained at
85
MPH with gear down and
96
MPH
with gear up. For climbing en route a speed of
110
MPH is recommended. This will produce better
forward speed and increase visibility over the nose during the climb, with little sacrifice in rate of
climb. Air conditioner may be turned on after all obstacles have been cleared.
