Markings and Consciousness
- Melo-red mark indicates a timeframe of 15-30 seconds
- At 40,000 feet, the time of useful consciousness is 15-30 seconds
Aircraft Performance
- If airspeed drops to zero during climb, it may be due to a blocked pitot tube, but with a clear drain vent
- The low pitch stop prevents the aircraft from reversing pitch at cruise
Calculations
- MAC% calculation result is 27.6%
Flight Planning and Safety
- For a 2-hour eastbound VFR trip, the maximum altitude without oxygen is 9500 ft
- For day VFR flights, an additional 30 minutes of fuel is required
- When flying over water without a lift jacket, the maximum distance from land is 50NM
- When flying over water without a life preserver, the maximum distance from land is also 50NM
Crosswind Limits
- For a CRFI of 0.35 with a 40° crosswind, the maximum wind speed is 20 KTS (using Chart)
