Rough air limit - how is it set?
toad wrote:
This is the basic method to set maneuvering speed: The Maneuvering Speed is the minimum speed at which the wing can produce lift equal to the design load limit. (in positive G's) Below this speed the wing can not produce enough lift to overstress the aircraft, no matter what angle of attack is used. Maneuvering speed assumes max gross weight. If you're flying lighter the wing can make enough lift to break. Shawn
