Single Engine Service Ceiling

1 Attachment(s)

Out doing some single engine work this week. Here's the stats

11,500 MSL
Rear Full power
Climb 100 FPM
Speed 115 IAS MPH
2 guys up front
75 gal fuel

Have you found that these lighter loads allow some amazing performance? I am always surprised how well this CLT aircraft does on one fan. What's your experience?

Yes. Tom Comet and I were out doing IFR approaches/hood work/refresher stuff last weekend. Two guys, 60 gallons, about 15 Celsius.

We didn't do any single engine work, but she was definitely answering the call with both turning. About 1500fpm initially at 105kias and a pretty stiff deck angle.
