Speeds & Mass Flashcards
Vno
130
Normal maximum structural cruising speed which should only be exceeded in smooth air
Vne
172
Never-exceed speed
Vo
Weight between 1181 - 1280 kg
113 kts
Maximum operational maneuvering speed (Vo) is a speed where the airplane will stall in a nose-up pitching maneuver before exceeding the airplane structural limits. Vo decreases as your aircraft’s weight decreases.
Vso
60 kts
Stall speed in landing configuration. Lower limit of white arc
Vs1
66 kts
Stall speed or minimum steady flight speed in a specific configuration. Normally regarded as the “clean” — gear and flaps up.
Vfe (flaps T/O)
110 kts
Maximum flap-extended speed. Top of white arc.
Vfe (flaps LDG)
98 kts
Vr
for weight 1200kg
65 kts
Rotation speed, which the nose wheel lifts off.
V50 flaps T/O
for weight 1200 kg
70 kts
Vy
for weight 1200 kg
72 kts
Best rate-of-climb speed. Delivers the greatest gain in altitude in the shortest time.
V cruise climb flaps UP
88 kts
Vref approach flaps LDG
for weight 1200 kg
77 kts
Final approach speed.
The actual answer for weight of 1200 kg is 76 kts but 77 kts is what we go by at Oxofrd.
Vref approach flaps T/O
for weight of 1200 kg
77 kts
Vref approach flaps UP
for weight of 1200 kg
82 kts
V minimum go around flaps T/O
for weight of 1200 kg
72 kts
Best gliding flaps UP
88 kts
For every 1000 ft drop = 1.59 nm
Vso while turning 30 degrees
63 kts
weight 1310 kg
The more you turn the higher the stall speed gets
Vs1 while turning 30 degrees
68 kts
for 1310 kg
