Hey Bill
In my 1968 owners manual it states; Section I Operating Check List, Take-Off (2) Power -- Full throttle and 2800 RPM, (4) Elevator Control -- Lift nosewheel at 75 to 80 MPH, (5) Climb Speed -- 115 MPH, etc, etc Climb. Normal Climb, (1) Airspeed -- 120 to 140 MPH, (2) Power -- 24 inches and 2600 RPM, etc. etc. Your manual should have this info..........if not let me know

Flight Instruction and Recurrent Training
Herb.
Thanks for the reply. Yes my AFM does have these values. But what I'm asking is specific values such as in the pattern starting with downwind, SAY "20 inches at 2400 RPM speed 100 MPH"? Base-15" @ 2200 RPM speed 95 MPH? Final 12" @ 1200 RPM speed 85 MPH? These are the specifics I'm talking about. ALSO does your 1968 have a "GO AROUND" with both engines operating? Mine does not. Any thanks for the reply. I hope you or other members can help with these speeds/power settings and a "go around with both engine operating". Thanks. BILLS |

BALKED LANDING Power - Punch it, Chewy! Wing Flaps - up to 1/3rd Airspeed - 90 MPH Wing Flaps - bring 'em up slow Cowl Flaps - Open The AFM doesn't give you specific power/RPM settings for flying a traffic pattern. I might be wrong, but I don't think any aircraft does. It's always going to be different depending on weight, DA, wind, etc etc etc etc. Leighton. |

Flight Instruction and Recurrent Training
Leighton. Thanks for your reply. I understand the speed and power settings will be different for DA, temp, weight etc, etc. Since I'm only now starting to learn the Skymaster I'd like some BASE-LINE settings. When I went from piston helicopter back to fixed wing (airplanes) my Civil Air Patrol CFI had given me some target speeds/power settings, which was helpful.
Thanks again, BILLS |

![]() Mich 3373.
This is what I was looking for! MANY THANKS! I'll have to do some conversions on fuel flow/airspeed (My Skymaster uses GPH and MPH) other than that EVERYTHING LOOKS GREAT! As for the Skymaster Association's Systems and Procedures course, I have the manual they give attendees BUT I haven't been. Thanks again. BILLS |

operating course
owned my T337C for about 10 years now...but I'd try to go to that course if offered....was thinking the guy who used to teach it retired. But if someone wants to get it on the calendar, I'll try to come as well.
Anyone else? |
