6.10 Glide Ratio<br />
The glide ration of the REMOS GX is about 1:10 with flaps retracted<br />
and an airspeed of 75mph (65kts). The following table shows, what<br />
distances can be flown in gliding configuration (engine shut-off) from<br />
different altitudes in a no-wind condition and a clean and dry aircraft.<br />
Expect significant loss of glide performance for a wet or dirty aircraft<br />
or in case flaps are deployed.<br />
Altitude in ft AGL 500 1,000 2,000 4.000 5.000<br />
Distance in NM 0.8 1.6 3.3 6.5 8.2<br />
6.11 In-Flight Engine Fire Procedure<br />
1. Shut-off fuel flow by closing fuel valve<br />
2. Push the throttle lever fully forward until engine stops<br />
