between maximum cruise speed, pressure altitude, ISA
condition, and aircraft weight in pounds. During
operation with ice vanes extended, true airspeed will be
reduced approximately 15 knots.
(2)
Purpose. This graph is used to determine
maximum cruise speed, given pressure altitude in feet
and ISA condition, and aircraft weight in pounds. During
operation with ice vanes extended, true airspeed will be
reduced by approximately 15 knots.

Purpose. This graph is used to determine
the recommended torque setting for maximum cruise
power, given indicated free air temperature in degrees
Celsius, pressure altitude in feet, and aircraft weight in
pounds. During operation with ice vanes extended,

Description. The Range Profile Maximum
Cruise Power at 1700 RPM graph (fig. 7-51) depicts
range at maximum cruise power.
(2)
Purpose. This graph is used to determine
range in nautical miles for various fuel loads and fuel
tank combinations, given pressure altitude in feet and
true airspeed in knots. Range allows for start, taxi, and
runup; includes cruise climb descent; and allows for 45
minutes reserve fuel at maximum range power. At
16,620 pounds ramp weight, the maximum zero fuel
weight limitation of 13,100 pounds would be exceeded at
fuel loading less than 3520 pounds.

Description. The Normal Cruise Power at
1500 RPM tables (fig. 7-52 through 7-59) show fuel
flow, airspeed, and torque for various flight conditions.
(2)
Purpose. These tables are used to
determine fuel flow per engine, total fuel flow, indicated
airspeed, and true airspeed, given pressure altitude in
feet, indicated free air temperature in degrees Celsius,
free air temperature in degrees Celsius, aircraft weight in
pounds, and torque per engine in percent. During
operation with ice vanes extended, torque will decrease
by approximately 12%, fuel flow will decrease by
approximately 8%, and true airspeed will be reduced by
approximately 15 knots.
