Nomenclatura de Velocidades

This document defines various speeds that are important for aircraft operation and design. It provides definitions for over 30 speed terms ranging from V1, the maximum speed allowed for takeoff before taking action to stop, to VYSE, the best speed for climbing in a twin engine plane after an engine failure. The speeds cover categories like takeoff safety, design maneuvering, cruising, stall, climb performance, and operating limits. This nomenclature aims to standardize terminology for important airspeeds used in aviation.

NOMENCLATURA DE VELOCIDADES

V1 The maximum speed in the takeoff at which the pilot must take the first action (e.g. apply
brakes, reduce thrust, deploy speed brakes) to stop the aircraft within the accelerate-stop
distance. V1 also means the minimum speed in the takeoff, following a failure of the critical
engine at VEF, at which the pilot can continue the takeoff and achieve the required height
above the takeoff surface within the takeoff distance.
V2 Takeoff safety speed.
V2MIN Minimum takeoff safety speed.
VA Design maneuvering speed.
This is the“rough air” speed and the maximum speed for abrupt maneuvers. If during
flight, rough air or severe turbulence is encountered, reduce the airspeed to maneuvering
speed or less to minimize stress on the airplane structure. It is important to consider weight
when referencing this speed. For example, VA may be 100 knots when an airplane is
heavily loaded, but only 90 knots when the load is light.
VB Design speed for maximum gust intensity.
VC Design cruising speed.
VD Design diving speed.
VDF/MDF Demonstrated flight diving speed.
VEF Speed at which the critical engine is assumed to fail during takeoff.
VF Design flap speed.
VFC/MFC Maximum speed for stability characteristics.
A speed that may not be less than a speed midway between maximum operating limit
speed (VMO/MMO) and demonstrated flight diving speed (VDF/MDF).
VFE Maximum flap extended speed.
VFTO Final takeoff speed.
VH Maximum speed in level flight with maximum continuous power.
VLE Maximum landing gear extended speed.
The maximum speed at which an airplane can be safely flown with the landing gear
extended.
VLO Maximum landing gear operating speed.
The maximum speed for extending or retracting the landing gear if using an airplane
equipped with retractable landing gear.
VLOF Lift-off speed.
VMC Minimum control speed with the critical engine inoperative.
This is the minimum flight speed at which a light, twin-engine airplane can be
satisfactorily controlled when an engine suddenly becomes inoperative and the remaining
engine is at takeoff power.
VMU Minimum unstick speed.
VMO/MMO Maximum operating limit speed.

VNE Never-exceed speed.
VNO Maximum structural cruising speed.
VR Rotation speed.
VREF Reference landing speed
VS Stalling speed or the minimum steady flight speed at which the airplane is controllable.
VS0 Stalling speed or the minimum steady flight speed in the landing configuration.
VS1 Stalling speed or the minimum steady flight speed obtained in a specific configuration.
VSR Reference stall speed.
VSR0 Reference stall speed in the landing configuration.
VSR1 Reference stall speed in a specific landing configuration.
VX Speed for best angle of climb.
The airspeed at which an airplane gains the greatest amount of altitude in the shortest
distance. It is used during a short-field takeoff to clear an obstacle.
VY Speed for the best rate of climb.
The speed at which an aircraft will gain the most altitude in the least amount of time.
VYSE This airspeed provides the most altitude gain in a given period of time in a light, twin
engine airplane following an engine failure.
