Pilots must adhere to specific operating limitations, including a maximum altitude of 14,000 feet and a stall speed of 60 knots in landing configuration. The aircraft has a maximum speed of 140 knots and a recommended approach speed of 70 knots.

Emergency Procedures

In the event of an engine failure, pilots should maintain control of the aircraft and execute a forced landing. The recommended glide speed is 70 knots. For electrical failures, pilots should switch off non-essential electrical equipment and land as soon as practical.

Performance Data

The C24R Sierra has a takeoff distance of approximately 1,200 feet and a landing distance of about 1,000 feet on a hard surface. Climb rate is approximately 700 feet per minute at sea level.

Weight and Balance

Proper weight and balance calculations are crucial for safe flight operations. The center of gravity limits must be adhered to, with a forward limit of 35 inches and an aft limit of 43 inches from the datum.

Safety notes

  • Always perform a weight and balance calculation before flight.
  • Adhere to the specified operating limitations to ensure safety.
  • In case of engine failure, maintain control and execute a forced landing.

B Page A BEECHCRAFT Sierra C24R INTRODUCTION The format and contents of this Pilot's Operating Handbook and FAA Approved Airplane Flight Manual conform to GAMA (General Aviation Manufacturers Association) Handbook Specification Number 1. Use of this specification by all manufacturers will provide the pilot with the same type of data in the same place in all handbooks. In recent years, BEECHCRAFT handbooks contained most of the data now provided. However, the new handbooks contain more detailed data and some entirely new data. For example, attention is called to Section X (SAFETY INFORMATION). BEECHCRAFT feels that it is highly important to have Safety Information in a condensed form in the hands of the pilots. The Safety Information should be read and studied. Periodic review will serve as a reminder of good piloting techniques. WARNING Use only genuine BEECHCRAFT or BEECHCRAFT approved parts obtained from BEECHCRAFT approved sources, in connection with the maintenance and repair of Beech airplanes. Genuine BEECHCRAFT parts are produced and inspected under rigorous procedures to insure airworthiness and

suitability for use in Beech airplane applications. Parts purchased from sources other than BEECHCRAFT, even though outwardly identical in appearance, may not have had the required tests and inspections performed, may be different in fabrication techniques and materials, and may be dangerous when installed in an airplane. June, 1984 a BEECHCRAFT Sierra C24R Salvaged airplane parts, reworked parts obtained from non- BEECHCRAFT approved sources, or parts, components, or structural assemblies, the service history of which is unknown or cannot be authenticated, may have been subjected to unacceptable stresses or temperatures or have other hidden damage, not discernible through routine visual or usual nondestructive testing techniques. This may render the part, component or structural assembly, even though originally manufactured by BEECHCRAFT, unsuitable and unsafe for airplane use. BEECHCRAFT expressly disclaims any responsibility for malfunctions, failures, damage or injury caused by use of non-BEECHCRAFT approved parts. b June, 1984 SIERRA C24R PILOT'S OPERATING HANDBOOK AND FAA APPROVED AIRPLANE FLIGHT MANUAL TABLE OF CONTENTS SECTION....
