The question I have is could someone give me normal entry speeds for
loops , rolls etc, only interested in pretty mild maneuvers just
positive G entry level stuff. |
Walt,
Here's what I use:
Rolls - anything over 100 knots, but around 125 KIAS (around normal cruise) is the nicest balance of roll rate and stick force required.
Loops & Cubans - 160 KIAS will give you a nice round loop with 4 G pulls at the bottom. If you're not worried about roundness, 3 G's will do 'er with margin over the top.
Immelman - 160-165 KIAS
Split S - less than 100 KIAS
Wing overs - can easily be accomplished from 140 KIAS....keep that ball centered!
If you're positive G the whole time, no need to worry about oil level....and if you go negative, it won't matter how much you have in there, you're gonna have a mess without a closed system.
Standard disclaimer: None of the above is an endorsement for performing aerobatics in a CJ. Obtain quality instruction and learn to fly any maneuvers competently with a qualified pilot before venturing out on your own. Know and rehearse stall/spin recovery techniques prior to any aerobatic flight. Give your self sufficient altitude to recover and or bailout of an unrecoverable situation. Wear a parachute and have parameters for it's use determined before getting in the cockpit. Kiss your wife and feed your dog...and most importantly have that cheeseburger you've been putting off before you go flying. -
Have fun!
Barry
