Large turbine engine powered airplanes are not permitted to operate below the Class B airspace when en route to or from the primary airport within the airspace. Class B Speed Limitations Aircraft flying within the Class B airspace may fly at an indicated airspeed of up to 250 knots.

But how to do so when you’ve known the airplane since its early development years, as I have? She warned me ahead of time that the airplane wouldn’t appear different from the outside but to expect something truly different inside. The logic is, if you can enter the airplane with the key fob, you can start the engine.

A lot of reports come from air carrier pilots, which makes sense because they fly the most, but there are plenty of GA airplanes in the mix as well. One pilot got such warning after ATC vectored the airplane onto a charted segment 700 feet below the charted altitude for that segment. Plus controllers and mechanics.

Class C airports’ speed limits require aircraft within 4 Nautical Miles (NM) of the primary airport and below 2500 feet to maintain an Indicated Airspeed (IAS) of 200 knots or less. Maintain a maximum airspeed of 200 knots when within 4 NM of the airport and below 2500 feet. Altitude and intentions (e.g.,

The higher speed creates extra lift, causing the airplane to bank further into the turn. The pilot’s job is to prevent the airplane from banking too quickly or too far. In our example, the right wing has more lift, and thus more drag, than the left wing as the airplane rolls. As the aircraft pitches up, the airspeed drops.

Concorde was a beautiful airplane, and it remains the object of much nostalgic admiration, but the world did not hurry to replace it. Now that ban, whose obtuse wording would apply even to a perfectly silent supersonic airplane if there were such a thing, is under new scrutiny, and NASA is studying ways of making sonic booms less annoying.

Alongside a nearby highway, some recognizable bits of airplane, the vertical stabilizer and rudder, a horizontal stabilizer and elevator, fell separately to Earth. The sole probable cause was the pilot’s ‘improper aerobatic maneuver…that exceeded the airplane’s design limits. The listed entry airspeed range is 87 to 97 knots.

In the Boeing 777 (and many other modern aircraft), the call-out for V 1 is automated and called out using a synthetic voice, so that it is triggered at the precise moment when the aircraft’s indicated airspeed reaches V 1. They reached 160 knots, the calculated speed for V 1 , and the automated call-out was made.

Naturally, my first officer and I got a good laugh from this as our 757 was cruising along effortlessly at about 300 knots indicated airspeed, and was not yawing towards the supposedly dead engine. I had also forgotten that today, everyone is an authority on things they know nothing about, such as airplanes.

The current emphasis in general aviation (GA) safety is on visual angle of attack (AOA) indicators and impossible turns (return to the airport following engine failure). An incomplete summary description of FASF is whether the airplane made it out of ground effect.

This is a hard one to gain insight from other than this: Some atmospheric events are bigger than our plastic airplanes. This is consistent with Rick’s report, which referenced 9 knots of wind. Without knowing the horizontal wind direction and speed at this point it is impossible to say what his indicated airspeed was.
