The speed will ensure the aircraft achieves the required height above the takeoff surface within the takeoff distance. [citation needed] To achieve a balanced field takeoff, V 1 is selected so the take-off distance with one engine inoperative, and the accelerate-stop distance, are equal. [1]
A headwind will reduce the ground speed needed for takeoff, as there is a greater flow of air over the wings. Typical takeoff air speeds for jetliners are in the range of 240–285 km/h (130–154 kn; 149–177 mph). Light aircraft, such as a Cessna 150, take off at around 100 km/h (54 kn; 62 mph). Ultralights have even lower takeoff speeds.

Denotes "critical engine failure" speed as the speed during takeoff where the same distance would be required to either continue the takeoff or abort to a stop. [19] V D: Design diving speed, the highest speed planned to be achieved in testing. [7] [8] [9] V DF: Demonstrated flight diving speed, the highest actual speed achieved in testing. [7 ...
The C-5 loadmasters ensure cargo is secured and balanced before takeoff. Takeoff and landing distance requirements for the plane at maximum-load gross weight are 8,300 ft (2,500 m) and 4,900 ft (1,500 m), respectively. Its high-flotation main landing gear provides 28 wheels to distribute gross weight on paved or earth surfaces. The rear main ...
Upon each landing, depending on the runway distance remaining, aircraft and pilot capabilities, noise abatement procedures in effect, and air traffic control clearance, the pilot will perform either a full stop landing (taxi to the runway beginning for subsequent take-off), a touch-and-go (stabilize in the landing roll, reconfigure the aircraft ...
