5.1 General
The performance data in the following section has been computed from actual flight tests with the aircraft
and power plant in good condition and using average piloting techniques. It should be noted that piloting
techniques, climatic conditions and aircraft condition will cause significant variation to these performance
figures.

Table 1 Section 5. Take Off Distance
Note 1
Take off distances are specified for:
Sea Level with:
Max Take Off Power
A level dry runway
With short grass
Still wind
And temperature of 15 deg C.
The following factors will increase take off distance:
Reduced Power Take Off
Higher drag runway surfaces such as wet or long grass
Tail wind
Uphill takeoff
OAT above 15 deg C
Runway altitude above sea level
The pilot is required to take into account the effect of the above when determining takeoff
distance
