SECTION VII
MODEL 560 FLIGHT PLANNING AND PERFORMANCE
DESCENT
Performance for two types of descent is presented on the following pages. Time, distance and fuel
information are provided for a normal descent of 2000 feet per minute, and a high speed descent of 3000
feet per minute.
This performance is based on controlling the fan speed to obtain the fuel flows, airspeed and rates of
descent presented with gear and flaps up, speed brakes retracted and anti-ice systems OFF or ON.
The time, distance and fuel used from a given altitude is based on descending to sea level. If the
descent is to another altitude, the difference in time, distance and fuel used between the initial and the final
altitude must be determined.
Begin descent at M
MO
-10 KIAS, and maintain desired rate of descent when obtained.
The data is based on a gross weight of 11,000 pounds and standard day temperature. However,
weight and temperature effects are minimal and the data can be used for all conditions.
