5.3 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION 

Additional  information  provide  to  pilot  more  useful  information  for  easier  handling  with 
aircraft. 
 

5.3.1 CRUISE 

 

Recommended cruising speed of SILA 450 C is 204 kmh(110 Knots), engine rpm 5.000 – 5.200 
(75-80  %  power)  between  29-32  MAP,  for  IAS  condition  (standard  atmosphere).  Aircraft  is 
correctly  trimmed  for  wing  level  flight,  with  elevator  trimmer  and  rudder  trimmer  if 
installed.
