Speeds and Speed Limits

Question 1

V_MO - SL - 8,000 FT

Answer 1

261 KTS

Question 2

V_MO - 8,000 FT - FL 29,315

Answer 2

276 KTS

Question 3

M_MO above 29,315

Answer 3

.721 M

Question 4

V_{FE - FULL/35^o}

Answer 4

172 KTS

Question 5

V_FE-PART/20^o

Answer 5

200 KTS

Question 6

V_LE

Answer 6

172 KTS

Question 7

V_LO

Answer 7

172 KTS

Question 8

V_SB (speed brakes)

Answer 8

No speed limit but,

must be stowed by 50 FT AGL

Question 9

Maximum A/P operating speeds

Answer 9

V_MO - 261 KTS or 276 KTS (altitude)

or M_MO - .721 M

Question 10

V_MCA

Answer 10

83 KTS

Question 11

V_MCG

Answer 11

73 KTS

Question 12

V_A

Answer 12

145 KTS - 274 KTS

Depending on weight and altitude

SL - 145 - 194 20,000 FT - 146 - 206

5,000 FT - 145 - 196 25,000 FT - 148 - 237

10,000 FT - 145 - 198 30,000 FT - 151 - 270

15,000 FT - 146 - 199 35,000 FT - 162 - 242

Question 13

Minumum Speed in Sustained Icing

Answer 13

160 KTS

Question 14

V_ZF - Zero Flaps Speed

Answer 14

Equals V_REF + 30 KTS

Question 15

V_FR - Flap Retraction Speed

Answer 15

Lowest airspeed at which flaps

should be retracted on climbout

(published with approach/landing data)

Question 16

V_ENR

Answer 16

??? Single engine enroute climb speed???

(published with approach and landing data)

Question 17

V_REF and V_APP comparison

(data for Cleveland brakes and

for SL to 7,000 FT)

Answer 17

Weight 15.1 14.4 13.5 12.5 11.5 10.5

V_REF 107 105 102 98 94 90

V_APP 111 109 106 102 98 94

approach speed is 4 KTS above V_REF

Question 18

V_GLIDE - Best Glide Speed

Answer 18

Weight (x1000 LBS) 15 14 13 12 11 10

V_GLIDE 149 143 137 131 125 119

for every 1,000 LBS less, subtract 6 KTS

Question 19

Cruise Climb Speeds

Answer 19

Starting at SL and 225 KTS, for each increase in altitude of 5,000 FT, decrease cruise climb speed by 5 KTS, i.e.:

5,000 FT - 220 KTS 25,000 FT - 200 KTS

10,000 FT - 215 KTS 30,000 FT - 195 KTS

15,000 FT - 210 KTS 35,000 FT - 190 KTS

20,000 FT - 205 KTS 40,000 FT - 185 KTS
