Cessna T210 Turbo Centurion takeoff and landing distance
BriefingPal result at MTOW, sea level, 15 °C, no wind, dry paved runway, normal takeoff and landing per POH with the app's default flap setting, without safety factor:
| Model | Takeoff ground roll | Takeoff over 50 ft | Landing over 50 ft | Landing ground roll |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| T210J Turbo Centurion (1969) | 250 m (820 ft) | 425 m (1,400 ft) | 415 m (1,370 ft) | 190 m (630 ft) |
