Meteorological terminology

ISA International Standard Atmosphere: is the air atmospheric standard

condition at sea level, at 15°C (59°F) and at 1013.25hPa
(29.92inHg).
QFE Official atmospheric pressure at airport level: it indicates the air-
craft absolute altitude with respect to the official airport level.
QNH Theoretical atmospheric pressure at sea level: is the atmospheric
pressure reported at the medium sea level, through the standard air
pressure-altitude relationship, starting from the airport QFE.
OAT Outside Air Temperature is the air static temperature expressed in
degrees Celsius (°C).
TS Standard Temperature is 15°C at sea level pressure altitude and
decreased by 2°C for each 1000 ft of altitude.

Weight and balance terminology

Datum “Reference datum” is an imaginary vertical

plane from which all horizontal distances are
measured for balance purposes.
Arm is the horizontal distance of an item meas-
ured from the reference datum.
Moment is the product of the weight of an item mul-
tiplied by its arm.
C.G. Center of Gravity is the point at which the
airplane, or equipment, would balance if
suspended. Its distance from the reference
datum is found by dividing the total moment
by the total weight of the aircraft.
Standard Empty Weight is the weight of the aircraft with engine flu-
ids and oil at operating levels.
Basic Empty Weight is the standard empty weight to which it is
added the optional equipment weight.
Useful Load is the difference between maximum takeoff
weight and the basic empty weight.
Maximum Takeoff Weight is the maximum weight approved to perform
the takeoff.
Maximum Landing Weight is the maximum weight approved for the
landing touchdown (for P2006T it is equiv-
alent to the Maximum Takeoff Weight).

3. POWERPLANT
P2006T is equipped with two four-cylinder four-stroke Rotax 912S engines of
98hp (73kW) each, both rotating clockwise. These are partially liquid cooled and
they feature an integrated reduction gear driving constant speed propellers with
pitch feathering devices.

Figure 5. – Rotax 912S

Cooling system is designed for liquid cooling of the cylinders heads and ram-air
cooling of the cylinders. The liquid system is a closed circuit with an overflow
bottle and an expansion tank.
The coolant flow is forced by a water pump, driven from the camshaft, from the
radiator to the cylinder heads. From the top of the cylinder heads the coolant pass-
es on to the expansion tank (item 1, Figure below). Since the standard location of
the radiator (2) is below engine level, the expansion tank, located on top of the en-
gine, allows for coolant expansion.

NORMAL OPERATIONS

COLD WEATHER OPERATIONS

If the aircraft is operated in cold weather conditions (from -25ºC till -5ºC) it is neces-
sary to perform following procedures:

- Heat the cabin to +25ºC to avoid windshield frost in flight

- Heat the engines with external source to + 20º C
- Check the pressure in hydraulic system, recharge if necessary
