SERVICE CEILING
This is the maximum density altitude where the best rate of climb airspeed (Vy) will produce a 100 fpm climb with both engines at max continuous power.
ABSOLUTE CEILING
This is the maximum density altitude that the airplane is capable of attaining or maintaining at max gross weight in the clean configuration and max continuous power. As altitude increases, Vx increases, while Vy decreases. Where these two speeds converge is absolute ceiling.
SINGLE ENGINE SERVICE CEILING
Maximum density altitude at which an aeroplane is capable of climbing at 50 feet per minute, at gross weight, clean configuration, while using maximum available power on the operating engine and maintaining the one engine inoperative best rate of climb speed.
SINGLE ENGINE ABSOLUTE CEILING
Maximum density altitude that an aeroplane is capable of attaining, at gross weight, clean configuration while using maximum available power on the operating engine and maintaining the one engine inoperative best rate of climb speed.
CRITICAL ENGINE
The engine that, upon failure, would most adversely affect the performance or handling qualities of an aeroplane.
Single-Engine Service Ceiling
Single-engine service ceiling is the maximum density altitude at which the single-engine best rate of climb airspeed (VYSE) will produce a 50 FPM rate of climb with the critical engine inoperative.
Single-Engine Absolute
Ceiling Single-engine absolute ceiling is the maximum density altitude that an aircraft can attain or maintain with the critical engine inoperative. VYSE and VXSE are equal at this altitude. The aircraft drifts down to this altitude when an engine fails.

VMC
VMC is the minimum airspeed at which directional control can be maintained with the critical engine inoperative. VMC speed is marked on the airspeed indicator by a red radial line. Aircraft manufacturers determine VMC speed based on conditions set by the FAA under FAR $23.149 :
