I cannot find a generic takeoff chart for the 850 lbs BD-5B Micro-plane. How can I find, generate, or calculate the takeoff and landing distances needed? I did find this chart below and included the specifications. Please provide an example I can follow and learn from. enter image description here enter image description here

    $\begingroup$ That is definitely not an ultralight! $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ @Justintimeforfun At least in the US, an ultralight must be less than 254 lbs. and carry 5 gallons or less of fuel. Since this plane has a gross weight of 850 lbs. and carries 26 gal. of fuel, it can't be an ultralight. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ You need the values of at least thrust, weight wing surface, density and maximum $C_l$, obviously all at takeoff. I think everything is know except max $C_l$ (?) $\endgroup$
