    Study Notes

    Airspace Speed Regulations

    • Maximum speed in airspace below Class B: 200 knots.
    • Maximum indicated airspeed below 2,500 feet AGL, within 4 nautical miles of Class C airport: 200 knots.

    Speed Limits Below 10,000 Feet

    • Maximum indicated airspeed below 10,000 feet MSL: 250 knots.

    Ground Speed and Airspeed Relationships

    • In calm wind conditions, airspeed closest to ground speed will be True Airspeed (TAS).

    Stall Speed Considerations

    • As altitude increases, a given airplane's stall indicated airspeed will remain the same at low altitude. The actual stall speed doesn’t change, though true airspeed might increase due to decreased air density.

    VNO Definition

    • VNO is defined as the maximum structural cruising speed and denotes the upper limit of the normal operating range.
