PA-12 Super Cruiser

Anyone happen to have a PDF POH for the PA-11 Super Cruiser.

Basically I'm looking for the following:
Vs
Va
Vx
Vy
Vno
VNe
Best glide
demonstrated crosswind
approach speed

fuel capacity

...

If anyone knows any of that, Or has a POH in PDF form I would GREATLY appreciate it.

(I meant to type PA-12. I made a mistake and put in PA-11. So no need to correct me :) )

I may be wrong, but I have never seen a POH for the early PA series.. I know a couple owners and will ask them for the speeds you need.

From memory not too good (I flew pipeline in a PA 12 6 years ago)

Vs (only one since this one wasn't fitted with flaps) was around 57,
Va around 85
Vx call it 65
Vy around 72
Vno (actually my cruise speed, close enough)was around 115
Vne ??? guessing around 160
Best glide, around 75
X-wind, max I would do was about 30, after that I'd land on taxiways or ramps.
Approach speed was 65
Fuel was greater than 4 hrs with the O-290.
 
Re: PA-12 Super Cruiser

According to the paperwork my Flight Review client filled out for his PA-12...
Vs 49
Va 94
Vx 64
Vy 75
Vno
VNe 138
Best glide 65
demonstrated crosswind I cut it off on the photocopy...sorry :(
approach speed 70

fuel capacity kinda tough to read, but I think it's 36 gallons

Fly safe!

Yeah. I just needed it at the time for a test I had to fill out for the FBO. Of course most of the information I couldn't find. I then asked htem and they realized they had no idea and of there isn't a manual that says any of it.

Apparently manuals are available somewhere...I reviewed them with my client in his manual.

Granted, it's probably not the manual required by the "O" in "ARROW" (or AROW, depending on your age).

Fly safe!

They are pretty good. they are a little bit... behind as far as technology goes.. but it makes it kind of fun that way.

My only gripe with them is the lack of online scheduling makes things quite a bit more difficult.

But it's a good place to rent a tailwheel or pick up a glider rating

Would the number of that PA 12 be 2877M?
