TAKEOFF DISTANCE

Adam these are the approx figures for the Five at Grosse weight! Less than Grosse the figures will be better I do not have access to the manual anymore
i used to operate the Seneca and a Baron 55 into 550 meters albeit with very rough runoff areas both ends but never ran off the smooth
the Seneca 2 had even shorter takeoff

I believe Denham is approx 2300 feet long

agreed the Aerostar is famed for needing quite a bit of runway and you would not want to go out at gross weight! Do you have the manual figures?
