4.8. Cruising flight
ATEC 212 SOLO has good flight features in the whole range of permitted speeds and centre
of gravity positions. The cruising speed is in the range 120 – 243 km/h …… 65 – 131 kt.
4.9. Descent and landing
Carry out the descent with the throttle in idle run at speed of 100 km/h ….. 54 kt
Flaps position limitations according to Art. 2.2
Procedures in the final:
1. Speed 90 km/h ….. 49 kt
2. Wing flaps in position III ( at strong turbulence or headwind position II )
3. Throttle idle, or corrected if necessary
4. Instruments in the permitted limits
Landing
The aeroplane in the hold-up position decreases its speed by a gradual pull of the control stick
until it touches down on the main wheels at speed of 70 km/h …... 38 kt. After the touch
down of the tail wheel, the landing run can be cut down by breaking. Keep runway direction
all the time using foot control. Keep the control stick pulled up by taxiing.
Do not apply a maximum brake effect except of an extreme situation. An undue wear of
tyres, brake lining and disc comes to and an over-stress of undercarriage and other
parts may shorten durability of an aircraft rapidly.
4.10. Flight in the rain
During the flight in the rain, the pilotage should be carried out with increased caution because
of the decreased visibility and cockpit transparency. Furthermore, one should take into
account a shortened hold-up position during the landing and extended take-off distance.
Maintain the following speeds during the flight in the rain:
1. Climb away 140 km/h ….. 75 kt
2. Cruising flight 120 – 200 km/h … 65 – 108 kt
3. Descent at landing 100 km/h ….. 54 kt, flaps I or II, see Art. 2.2
