Chapter 30 - Limitation Flashcards
How do we get ultimate load
Load limit x safety factor
Safety factor for normal aviation is
1.5
Load limit does not account for mass so always use
heaviest
Give Load factor for C25 in +VE and -VE
+VE 2.5
-VE -1.0
Give Load factor for C23 (utility) +VE
4.4
Give Load factor for C23 in +VE and -VE
+VE 6.0
-VE -3.0
Va is
Highest speed you can give full elevator up deflection and not bend the ac
If you are below Va / slower speeds what will happen before the a/c bends
stall
Vb is
Design speed for Gusts / turbulence
Vra
Used as recommended turbulence airspeed
which is fast enough to avoid stalling + slow enough to avoid structural damage
Vc is
design cruise speed
no less than Vb x 1.32
no more than 80% of Vd
Vmo
Max operating Velocity
Mmo
Max Mach operating number
Vne
never exceed
Vle
max land gear extended
