Introduction
This chapter provides information on aircrafts airspeed calibration, stall speeds and general per-
formance. All data published was obtained from test ight analysis. Test pilots were instructed to
control the plane simulating average pilots ying skills.
Airspeed indicator calibration (IAS to CAS)
Pitot tubes ingenious mounting and construction makes IAS to CAS correction values insignicant.
Therefore pilots should regard IAS to be same as CAS. IAS = CAS.
Stall speeds
Stall speeds at MTOM are as follows:
aps in negative position; -5° (up): 69 km/h (36,7 kts)
aps in neutral position; 0° (neutral): 66 km/h (35,6 kts)
aps in 1
st
position; +9° (down): 65 km/h (35,0 kts)
aps in 2
nd
position: +18° (down): 63 km/h (34,0 kts)
Take-off performance
All data published in this section was obtained under following conditions:
aircraft at MTOM
elevation: 100 meters (330 feet)
wind: calm
runway: dry grass runway with low-cut grass
ICAO standard atmosphere
SINUS Model 503 Model 582 Model 912
takeo runway length at MTOM (VARIO prop.) 123 m (405 ft) 100 m (330 ft) 93 m (305 ft)
takeo runway length (over 15m (50 ft) obstacle) 215 m (705 ft) 170 m (555 ft) 153m (450 ft)
Note: in order to meet the data for takeo runway lenght over 15 m obstacle maintain Vx
after take-o.
Takeo runway length may vary depending on the wind, temperature, elevation and
wing & propeller surface condition.
