(a) (For 11CC Landplane) FAA Approved Airplane Flight Manual dated May 10, 1948 (b) (For S11CC Landplane) FAA Approved Airplane Flight Manual dated October 29, 1948 (c) FAA Approved Skiplane Supplement to Airplane Flight Manual dated January 25, 1949. In lieu of this item, the following skiplane performance information may be appended to the Performance Section of Item 401(a): TAKEOFF DISTANCE AND LANDING DISTANCE - Under the most favorable conditions of smooth packed snow at temperatures approximating 32°F, the skiplane takeoff distance is approximately 10% greater than that shown for the landplane and the skiplane landing distance is approximately 20% greater than that shown for the landplane. In estimating takeoff and landing distance for other conditions, caution should be exercised in that lower temperatures or other snow conditions will usually increase the takeoff distances and either decrease or increase the landing distances. NORMAL RATE OF CLIMB - Reduce rate of climb values of landplane by approximately 10%. STALLING SPEED (POWER OFF) - Stalling speeds for skiplane same as shown for landplane. NOTE 1. Current weight and balance report including list of equipment included in certificated weight empty, and loading instructions when necessary, must be in each aircraft at the time of original certification and at all times thereafter (except in the case of air carrier operators having an aproved weight control system). 5 A-796 NOTE 2. The following placards must be displayed in front of and in clear view of the pilot: (a) "This airplane must be operated as a normal or utility category airplane in compliance with the limitation in the FAA Approved Airplane Flight Manual. All markings and placards on this airplane apply to its operation as normal category airplane. For utility category operations, refer to Airplane Flight Manual. No aerobatics maneuvers (including spins) are approved for Normal Category operations." (b) "Auxiliary Fuel Tank - Drain in level flight when main tank is half full. Close valve when drained." ....END.... ``` ## ADs (5, in force first) - [AD 2000-25-02 R1](https://openairdocs.org/ad/2000-25-02-R1): Wood Spars · American Champion 11AC, 11BC, 11CC and 27 more.
