After a few seconds, Ill lift the tail and then add full power. The airplane is incredibly sensitive, thanks to sweeping, full-span ailerons and an unnaturally tall stick that exaggerates any and all inputs. Max GrossWeight: 2,200 lbs. Empty Weight, Standard: 1,300 lbs. If we have any problems, its your airplane.
In maintaining a properly coordinated steep turn, the pilot must use the opposite aileron to maintain bank. A smaller bank angle will result in more lift, while an increased bank angle will reduce the lift. As an aircraft banks, lift is divided into horizontal and vertical components.
Lift : The aerodynamic force generated due to airflow over the wings. Weight : The force gravity exerts on the aircraft. The aircraft’s deceleration reduces the airflow over the wings, which reduces lift. When the lift force is less than the force of gravity, the aircraft descends. Why does this happen?
Aircraft Weight and Limitations An aircraft’s weight affects inertia and stopping distance. The POH lists landing distances for specific grossweights. Smaller aircraft may only have short field landing distances for maximum grossweight. Reducing lift puts more weight on the wheels.
Meaningful weight conservation comes from the elimination of a spar overlap a two-piece wing would require plus the one-piece design is easier to build accurately. The airfoil is a Harry Riblett shape, giving modernized flow separation on the leading edge for a soft stall yet with good lift and drag performance.
Maximum GrossWeight: 1,587 lbs. Empty Weight, Standard: 959 lbs. The ailerons feature a small flow-control trailing-edge flap to enhance roll control. Baron told us to lift the nose at 50 knots, which proved correct for a takeoff about 900 feet down the runway. All of Tecnam’s production is built-to-fill orders.
