Answer 22

The minimum airspeed at which the aircraft can be controlled after a critical engine failure at 50ft with Max 5 degrees aob
Less than 1. 2vs

Question 23

Define Vmcg

Answer 23

The minimum speed at which the aircraft can be controlled on the ground following a critical engine failure, with only the use of aerodynamic surfaces with the other engine(s) at take off thrust.
Usually higher than Vmca.

Question 24

What does sweep back do for stability and critical Mach number

Answer 24

Increases mcrit as only the chordwise component counts for mcrit. (thinks its slower than it is)

Lateral stability is reduced as the effective span changes more when yawed.

Longitudinal stability also reduced due to Mach tuch
