| Vyse | 108 KIAS | Best rate of climb single engine, reducing 1 kt per 200 kg below MTOW |
| Vs (both engines idle) | 69-73 KIAS | Weight and bank dependent. The Carenado ASI carries its stall marker at 70 kt |
| Vref / Approach (typical) | 85 KIAS | Crosscheck against the reference speed display |
| Max Tire Speed | 140 KIAS | - |
POWER SETTINGS
| Phase | Setting |
|---|---|
| Start | POWER lever GI / ENG SPEED GROUNDSTART (green line) to LOW |
| Taxi | ENG SPEED LOW (about 68-72 percent RPM) |
| Takeoff | ENG SPEED HIGH, 97 +/- 0.5 percent RPM / POWER levers slowly towards MAX |
| Climb | POWER and ENG SPEED as required |
| Cruise | About 96-97 percent RPM (no cruise gate - set by gauge) |
