FAA APPROVED
CRUISE
Normal cruise is performed using any desired power setting up to the
maximum cruise power (observe ITT, torque, and N
g
cruise limits). Do
not exceed the maximum cruise torque or 805°C ITT shown in Section
5, Performance, Figure 5-19 or Figure 5-36, Cruise Performance or
Figure 5-20 or Figure 5-37, Cruise Maximum Torque for the particular
altitude and temperature. Normally, a new engine will exhibit an ITT
below 775°C when set to the maximum cruise torque.
The Sample Cruise Performance Chart, Figure 4-4, illustrates the
advantage of higher altitude on both true airspeed and nautical miles
per 1000 pounds of fuel. In addition, the beneficial effect of lower cruise
power on nautical miles per 1000 pounds of fuel at a given altitude can
be observed. Cruise Performance Charts are provided in Section 5 to
assist in selecting an efficient altitude based on available winds aloft
information for a given trip. The selection of cruise altitude on the basis
of the most favorable wind conditions and the use of low power settings
are significant factors that should be considered to reduce fuel
consumption.
The INERTIAL SEPARATOR should be set to BYPASS mode and
PITOT/STATIC and STALL HEAT switches should be ON anytime the
OAT is below 5°C (41°F) and in visible moisture.
