NOTE
Speed performance and range are shown for an airplane
equipped with the standard wheel and brake fairings. These
fairings increase the speeds approximately 3 knots over an
airplane without the fairings.

The above performance figures are based on the indicated weights, standard atmospheric
conditions, level, hard-surface dry runways and no wind. They are calculated values
derived from flight tests conducted by Cessna Aircraft Company under carefully
documented conditions and will vary with individual airplanes and numerous factors
affecting flight performance.
