PERFORMANCE (SECTION 5)
The Performance section contains all the information required by the aircraft certification regulations, and any additional performance information the manufacturer feels may enhance a pilot's ability to safely operate the airplane. Performance charts, tables, and graphs vary in style, but all contain the same basic information. Some examples of the performance information found in most flight manuals include a graph or table for converting calibrated airspeed into true airspeed; stall speeds in various configurations; and data for determining takeoff and climb performance, cruise performance, and landing performance. For more information on how to use the charts, graphs, and tables, refer to Aircraft Performance.
WEIGHT AND BALANCE/EQUIPMENT LIST (SECTION 6)
The Weight and Balance/Equipment List section contains all the information required by the FAA to calculate the weight and balance of the airplane.
Manufacturers include sample weight and balance problems. Weight and balance is discussed in greater detail in Weight and Balance.
