Refusal speed is the maximum speed during takeoff from which the air vehicle can stop within the available remaining runway length for a specified altitude, weight, and configuration. [19] Incorrectly, or as an abbreviation, some documentation refers to V ref and/or V rot speeds as "V r." [29] V S
{{convert|100|lb|kg}} → 100 pounds (45 kg) The unit-codes should be treated as case-sensitive: {{convert|100|Mm|mm}} → 100 megametres (1.0 × 10 11 mm) The output of {{convert}} can display multiple converted units, if further unit-codes are specified after the second unnamed parameter (without the pipe separator). Typical combination ...
However, chains are not familiar to many readers, and therefore a link is provided. This template is designed to mimic the function of the {} template, which is currently unable to make selective links. If a wiki-link to chains is not required, or it is preferable to link to both miles and chains, {} can be used instead.
A chart of velocity versus load factor (or V-n diagram) is another way of showing limits of aircraft performance. It shows how much load factor can be safely achieved at different airspeeds. [3] At higher temperatures, air is less dense and planes must fly faster to generate the same amount of lift.

convert CAS to equivalent airspeed (EAS) by allowing for compressibility effects (not necessary at slow speed or low altitude); EAS is used by aircraft engineers and some very high-altitude flying aircraft such as the U-2 and the SR-71; convert EAS to true airspeed (TAS) by allowing for differences in density altitude.
Airspeed is commonly given in knots (kn). Since 2010, the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) recommends using kilometers per hour (km/h) for airspeed (and meters per second for wind speed on runways), but allows using the de facto standard of knots, and has no set date on when to stop.
Changing a wheel on a Lockheed P-3 Orion aircraft Tires on the wheels of a bogie on a Boeing 777. An aircraft tire or tyre is designed to withstand extremely heavy loads for short durations. [1] The number of tires required for aircraft increases with the weight of the aircraft, as the weight of the airplane needs to be distributed more evenly.
