   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 ...

   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.

4. V speeds - Wikipedia

   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 ...

   A higher cost index results in a higher ECON speed. Cost index can be given in "Boeing" or "English" units as ($/hr)/(cents/lb), equivalent to 100 lb/hr. [10] [11] A typical cost index in these units might be anywhere from 5 to 150. [12] Alternatively cost index can be given in metric or "Airbus" units of kg/min. [10] [11]

6. 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]
