This type of airplane is preferred for cross-country flights. Airplanes used for short flights and carrying heavy loads, such as those used in certain agricultural operations, are designed differently, but still exhibit good performance for their purpose. Some of the factors which represent good performance are short takeoff and landing distance, increased climb capability, and greater speeds using less of its effect on performance, airplane WEIGHT and BALANCE information is included in this CHAPTER . Also included is an introduction to determining takeoff, cruise, and landing performance.

capability to recover from stalls and spins. Another undesirable characteristic produced from tail-heavy loading is that it produces very light control forces.
