  2. V speeds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V_speeds

    V-speed designator Description V 1: The speed beyond which takeoff should no longer be aborted (see § V 1 definitions below). [7] [8] [9] V 2: Takeoff safety speed. The speed at which the aircraft may safely climb with one engine inoperative. [7] [8] [9] V 2 min: Minimum takeoff safety speed. [7] [8] [9] V 3: Flap retraction speed. [8] [9] V 4 ...

  3. Minimum control speeds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimum_Control_Speeds

    The minimum control speed during approach and landing (V MCL) is similar to V MCA, but the aircraft configuration is the landing configuration. V MCL is defined for both part 23 <FAR 23.149 (c)> and part 25 aircraft in civil aviation regulations.

  4. Balanced field takeoff - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balanced_field_takeoff

    The takeoff decision speed V 1 is the fastest speed at which the pilot must take the first actions to reject the takeoff (e.g. reduce thrust, apply brakes, deploy speed brakes). At speeds below V 1 the aircraft can be brought to a halt before the end of the runway. At V 1 and above, the pilot should continue the takeoff even if an emergency is ...

  5. Speed and rate of climb - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate_of_climb

    [3] V x increases with altitude and V Y decreases with altitude until they converge at the airplane's absolute ceiling, the altitude above which the airplane cannot climb in steady flight. The Cessna 172 is a four-seat aircraft. At maximum weight it has a V Y of 75 kn (139 km/h) indicated airspeed [4] providing a rate of climb of 721 ft/min (3. ...

  7. Maneuvering speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maneuvering_speed

    V A is the design maneuvering speed and is a calibrated airspeed.Maneuvering speed cannot be slower than and need not be greater than V c. [4]If is chosen by the manufacturer to be exactly the aircraft will stall in a nose-up pitching maneuver before the structure is subjected to its limiting aerodynamic load.

  8. Aircraft approach category - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_approach_category

    II-5-1-3 Pilots may not use a lower category than the one certified, but may choose to use a higher category for higher speed approaches. [2] The maximum permitted speed for visual manoeuvring is significantly higher than the threshold speed. Additional speed ranges are specified for other segments of the approach. [1]: Table II-5-1-2
