The first officer would use the aircraft weight, along with the environmental conditions and the runway parameters, to determine the V-speeds for the flight and enter them into the flight management system. Based on this, the V-speeds should have been calculated at V 1 =118, V R =123, V₂=127.5

Each aircraft’s POH or manual has a page specifically dedicated to that aircrafts V-Speeds. So, what are they? V-Speeds: What Are They? Each V-speed (and there are many) is technically a specific speed for a specific maneuver in a specific configuration. There you’ll find all of them.

Energy is always required for acceleration, to overcome air drag, as well as rolling and friction resistance of wheels on road and rail, and for “lifting work”, i.e., working against gravity. The mass to be moved (in kilograms, kg) plays a decisive role both in the energy required for acceleration and for the lifting work.

As they were already at take-off speed and with most of the runway behind them, the crew continued in hopes of getting the aircraft into the air. Eventually, the video shows the Boeing gain enough airspeed to lift off and climb away. This transition of lifting off is called rotation. Generally, the sequence is pretty simple.

When the aileron is deflected up on one side, lift is decreased on that wing. At the same time, the opposite aileron is lowered, thus increasing lift on that wing, causing the plane to roll. What are the V speeds on your aircraft, and which ones change with weight?

This transition of lifting off is called rotation. The reference for take-off in the Flight Management System showed: Flaps 5° Thrust 56° V 1 : 145 kt V R : 149 kt V 2 : 156 kt V-speeds are used to define the relative speeds which are important to the operation of the aircraft.
