    The lowest NOE flying is by helicopters because they have lower speeds and more maneuverability than fixed-wing aircraft, particularly fast jets. Helicopters can fly at treetop levels or even below the height of surrounding trees where there are clear areas (such as in river gullies), [ 1 ] flying under wires (such as electricity cables) rather ...

  3. Minimum control speeds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimum_Control_Speeds

    The minimum control speed is the airspeed below which the force the rudder or ailerons can apply to the aircraft is not large enough to counteract the asymmetrical thrust at a maximum power setting. Above this speed it should be possible to maintain control of the aircraft and maintain straight flight with asymmetrical thrust. [4]

  4. V speeds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V_speeds

    Stall speed or minimum steady flight speed for which the aircraft is still controllable. [7] [8] [9] V S 0: Stall speed or minimum flight speed in landing configuration. [7] [8] [9] V S 1: Stall speed or minimum steady flight speed for which the aircraft is still controllable in a specific configuration. [7] [8] V S R: Reference stall speed. [7 ...

  5. Range (aeronautics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_(aeronautics)

    Maximum Endurance and Range versus airspeed. The maximum endurance condition would be obtained at the point of minimum power required since this would require the lowest fuel flow to keep the airplane in a steady, level flight. Maximum range condition would occur where the ratio of speed to power required is greatest.

  6. True airspeed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/True_airspeed

    Here the speed is displayed both in knots (kn) and miles per hour (mph). The true airspeed (TAS; also KTAS, for knots true airspeed) of an aircraft is the speed of the aircraft relative to the air mass through which it is flying. The true airspeed is important information for accurate navigation of an aircraft.

  7. Equivalent airspeed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalent_airspeed

    where a 0 is 1,225 km/h (661.45 kn) (the standard speed of sound at 15 °C), M is the Mach number, P is static pressure, and P 0 is standard sea level pressure (1013.25 hPa). Combining the above with the expression for Mach number gives EAS as a function of impact pressure and static pressure (valid for subsonic flow):

    British Airways Flight 216 reached a top speed of 809 mph Sunday and landed at London Heathrow 20 minutes early after departing its gate at 6:38 p.m., FlightAware data shows. Did these flights ...

  9. Mach number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mach_number

    The subsonic speed range is that range of speeds within which, all of the airflow over an aircraft is less than Mach 1. The critical Mach number (Mcrit) is lowest free stream Mach number at which airflow over any part of the aircraft first reaches Mach 1. So the subsonic speed range includes all speeds that are less than Mcrit. Transonic: 0.8–1.2
