5.3.Rate of climbs and height loss from the beginning of stalling
The values of rate of climbs are valid for maximum weight of the airplane-450kg with maximum
steady output of the engine and after the recount to the zero height by the MSA. With
increasing height the rate of climb expressively decreases.
Rate of climb for the engine Rotax 912 4,6m/s
Rate of climb for the engine Rotax 912S 4,8m/s
The loss of height from the beginning of stalling in direct flight till reinstatement of the
horizontal flight using the common procedures is 15m.
The loss of height by stalling in strictly flying turn at the bank of 30 degrees from the beginning
of stalling till reinstatement of the horizontal flight is 20-25m.
5.4.Ceiling
Practical ceiling is 6500m with the airplane with engine Rotax 912 and 912S with the maximum
taking off weight. Practical ceiling means the height of the airplane when it is able to be rising
with the speed at least 0.5m/s.
5.5.Gliding range
Introduced value of the gliding range is valid for wooden 2blade airscrew and the speed of the
flight 130km/h.
Gliding range with no load engine 16.8
Gliding range with turned off engine 15.2
When using other than introduced airscrew, especially 3blade is the real gliding range by no
load engine slightly higher / principle of bigger tension/. and with turned off engine slightly
lower / the principle of higher aerodynamic force /
5.6 Length of start
Introduced length of start is prescribed for the maximum weight 450kg, by dead calm, dry,
straight and shortly cut lawn, with the position of lifting flaps prescribed for the start. There is
prescribed the value of sticking off the launching area and for reaching the height of 15m.
Engine After sticking off Across the obstruction at the height of 15m
912 90m 290m
912S 75m 250m
5.7.Landing length
Introduced length of landing is prescribed for the maximum weight of 450 kg, by dead calm,
dry and straight and short cut lawn and with the position of lifting flaps prescribed for the
landing. There is a value for maximum effective braking / without blocking the wheels / and for
the landing without using the brakes.
The length of landing with using the brakes 100m
Length of landing without using the brakes 300m
Do not forget the landing length will expressively elongate, if you try to land with wind in the
back. If it is only possible, land always against the wind.
