PERFORMANCE AND FLIGHT PLANNING
The performance information presented
in
this section
is
based on
measured Flight Test
Data
corrected to I.C.A.O. standard day conditions
and analytically expanded for the various parameters of weight, altitude,
temperature, etc.
The performance charts are unfactored and do not make any allowance
for varying degrees
of
pilot proficiency
or
mechanical deterioration
of
the
aircraft. This
performance, however, can be duplicated by following the
stated
procedure!) in a properly maintained airplane.
Effects of conditions not considered on the charts must
be
evaluated
by
the pilot, such as the effect
of
soft or grass runway surface on takeoff and
landing performance,
or
the effect of winds aloft on cruise and range
performance. Endurance can
be
grossly affected
by
improper leaning
procedures, and inflight fuel flow and quantity checks are recommended.
