Glide Ratio

Post by Tucker »

Hello,

My search pulled up nothing and I thought I'd just ask here instead of shooting an email off to Barry.

Can anybody give me the glide ratio of the TSI - assume a full feathered prop. Has anybody actually done this?

Thanks.

The latest iteration of the POH from Sling Rev 2.2 says that best glide speed is KIAS 72 and translated to a glide ration of 12:1.
