Moose maneuvering speed
Posted: Sun Feb 19, 2012 5:21 pm
How does one determine best maneuvering speed when doing flight tests? I
see that AC 90-89a says (page 34) that it should be estimated at 2 x
estimated stall speed. That's it though, no suggested flight test profile
to fly to determine maneuvering speed. Manufacturer (me/Murphy) can't state
such since there are so many variances out there (wing tips, VG's, droop
leading edge, etc). Suggestions for determining this value?
I'm getting ready to fly soon-but no, not today.
