Section IV. LOADING LIMITS
5-17. CENTER OF GRAVITY LIMITATIONS.
Center of gravity limits and instructions for
computation of the center of gravity are contained in
Chapter 6. The center of gravity range will remain
within limits, providing the aircraft loading is
accomplished according to instructions in Chapter 6.
5-18. WEIGHT LIMITATIONS.
The ability to experience loss of engine
power and successfully stop, continue the
takeoff, or climb, before or after gear
retraction, is not assured for all conditions.
Thorough mission planning must be
accomplished prior to takeoff, by analysis
of maximum takeoff weight permitted by
takeoff distance, accelerate-stop, positive
one engine inoperative climb at lift off,
accelerate-go, takeoff climb gradient, and
climb performance. This data will describe
performance
capabilities
for
critical
mission decisions.
a. Operations At Or Below 12,500 Pounds
Gross Takeoff Weight (GTOW).
(1) Takeoff. Maximum GTOW is 12,500
pounds.
(2) Landing. Maximum gross landing weight
is 12,500 pounds
(3) Maximum Ramp Weight. Maximum ramp
weight is 12,590 pounds.
(4) Maximum Zero Fuel Weight. Maximum
zero fuel weight is 11,000 pounds.
(5) Altitude.
(a) At least 75% of total missions shall
be flown at altitudes above 5,000 feet above ground
level when operating at or below 12,500 pounds
GTOW.
(b) At least 50% of total missions shall
be flown at altitudes above 10,000 feet above ground
level when operating at or below 12,500 pounds
GTOW.
b. Operations Over 12,500 Pounds GTOW.
(1) Requirements.
Artificial stall warning systems may only
provide a 1 to 5 knot stall warning.
CAUTION
Maximum GTOW charts must be strictly
followed in the event of an engine failure.
(a) Aircraft shall be equipped with
Raisbeck Engineering dual aft body strakes and
engine ram air recovery system with PT6A-42 engines.
(b) Landing. Maximum landing weight is
12,500 pounds, unless required by an emergency. If it
is necessary to land with a weight over 12,500 pounds,
the landing shall be made on a smooth, paved runway
at a sink rate of 500 feet per minute or less, if possible.
(c) Altitude. All missions with over
12,500 pounds GTOW shall be planned and flown at
or above 10,000 feet above ground level.
