AIRFIELD PRESSURE
ALTITUDE
The Airfield Pressure Altitude is that altitude registered
at the surface of the aerodrome by an altimeter with the
pressure subscale set to 1013 millibars
INDICATED AIRSPEED
(I.A.S.)
Indicated airspeed, which is the reading obtained from
an airspeed indicator having no calibration error.
TAKEOFF SAFETY
SPEED
The Takeoff Safety Speed is a speed chosen to ensure
that adequate control will exist under all conditions,
including turbulence and sudden and complete engine
failure, during the climb after takeoff.
LANDING SAFETY
SPEED
The Landing Safety Speed is the speed chosen to
ensure that adequate control will exist under all
conditions, including turbulence, to carry out normal
flare and touchdown.
NORMAL OPERATING
SPEED
This speed shall not normally be exceeded. Operations
above the Normal Operating Speed shall be conducted
with caution and only in smooth air.
Va MANOEUVRING
SPEED
Maximum for manoeuvres involving an approach to
stall conditions or full application of the primary flight
controls.
KCAS KNOTS
CALIBRATED AIRSPEED
Indicated airspeed corrected for position and
instrument error and expressed in knots. KCAS is equal
to KTAS in standard atmosphere at sea level
KIAS KNOTS
INDICATED AIRSPEED
The speed shown on the airspeed indicator and
expressed in knots.
KTAS KNOTS TRUE
AIRSPEED
The airspeed expressed in knots relative to undisturbed
air which is KCAS corrected for altitude and
temperature.
V fe MAXIMUM FLAP
EXTENDED SPEED
The highest speed permissible with wing flaps in the
prescribed extended position.
V no MAXIMUM
STRUCTURAL CRUISING
SPEED
The speed that should not be exceeded except in
smooth air, and then only with caution.
V ne NEVER EXCEED
