Maximum Gross Weight: 1,587 lbs. Empty Weight, Standard: 959 lbs. Stall Speed, Flaps Down: 44 knots Takeoff Distance: 1,017 ft. The broad stabilator carries an electrically adjustable balance tab. Baron told us to lift the nose at 50 knots, which proved correct for a takeoff about 900 feet down the runway.

In order to be flown by a sport pilot, the resulting airplane must still meet the current regulations—1,320 pounds maximum gross weight, 120 knots max cruise speed, for example—but how it gets there is up to the builder. With a 41-knot stall speed, the common 1.3 Vso approach speed is 53 knots. gallons per hour.

In the Cessna 172S Pilot’s Operating Handbook (POH), the landing distance decreases by 10% for every 9 knots of headwind. For the Cessna 172, landing distance increases by 10% for every 2 knots of tailwind. Aircraft Weight and Limitations An aircraft’s weight affects inertia and stopping distance.

With a maximum takeoff weight of 2,400 pounds and a maximum gross weight that ensures stability, this aircraft is robust enough to handle a variety of flying conditions. For instance, Knots 2U offers a Cessna 172 Cowl / Body Fairing Kit that improves aerodynamics and can increase cruise speed by 3-4 mph.

This is often the clean configuration at max gross weight. The stall warning horn sounds at least 5 knots above the actual stall speed. Since you need to fly without triggering the warning, select a target airspeed of about 2 to 5 knots more. Trim for level flight once you’re stabilized at your target speed.

As it does, one aircraft is seeking to capture a particular slice of the advanced air mobility market, one that none of its rivals can challenge – that is, the provision of electric flights for seven people flying at up to 250 knots (450kph) and with a stage length of around 500 miles (800km).
