T/O distance max fuel 5,250'
Landing distance 2,345'
Land dist max land wt 3,100'
Range 3,515 nm


*Note that the air file is set for 2100fpm for autopilot setting.

**On climb with full fuel, initial altitude is 41,000' until Mach .75. Climb to 45,000', with climb rate of 900-1000 fpm.

***On approach, the aircraft will want to fly flat. When lowering flaps, aircraft should be pitched down until established on GS at about -900 fpm. Comfortable landing speed is between 118 knots and 125 knots depending on landing weight. You can land with 3/4 fuel, but I wouldn't. On final at 4 miles, speed should be at 140 knots, reducing to 118-125 on touchdown.

Flaps limits:

damaging speed 250 KIAS
blowout speed 280 KIAS

All settings are with MGLW

flaps 20 degrees: 180 knots
flaps 30 degrees: 155 knots
flaps 45 degrees: 130 knots

Take-off requires no flaps, but 20 degrees will get you off the ground faster and is recommended with MTOW/MZFW.


THERE IS NO STALL! The problem with FS is that aircraft will not stall. They will simply stop flying as it flies level or nose-up. WATCH THE VSI and AIRSPEED!
