What does kts mean on take off of an airplane?

It's a measure of speed. (Like miles per hour (mph), or kilometers per hour (kph)). The Cessna 172 has a takeoff speed of about 55 knots (kts). A Boeing 737 has a takeoff speed of about 135-140 knots. On takeoff, aircraft need to reach a certain speed to get into the air.


Why do airplanes need so much speed to take off?

Airplanes need a lot of speed to take off because they are not designed for vertical takeoff and are to heavy to do so.


Do you need to know the height of an airplane to determine speed of that aircraft?

No.


How much gallons of fuel does an airplane need to fly 4577 miles?

There is not enough information to be able to answer this with a number. To get an answer, you need to know what the fuel consumption is for the plane and then you need to know what direction and how strong the winds are. Knowing the wind speed will allow you to calculate your ground speed.

What is the take-off speed of a boeing 737?

150 mph / 250 km/h / 130 ktsThis depends on many factors; there are several different models and configurations of 737. The takeoff weight and atmospheric conditions can also have a huge effect on the takeoff speed. The takeoff speed for any given flight may be anywhere from 110 to 160 mph.If you need a more precise number, linked below is a table you can use to calculate the proper takeoff speed (in knots) for the plane and conditions.At least in a flight simulator, a Boeing 737 takes off (leaves the runway) at a speed of approximately 140-180 knots, which is approximately 161-207 miles per hour. The speed varies with the weight of the aircraft.A Boeing 737 needs to achieve about 150 miles per hour before it can take off from the airport runway. This is assuming that the aircraft weighs about 100,000 pounds at the time of departure.The take off speed of any airplane is based on the total weight, including fuel, passengers and baggage. A fully loaded 737 needs about 180 miles per hour to take off safely.
