Best Answer

You should never tow an aircraft faster than a fast walking pace or slow jog. Somewhere around 3 or 4 mph.

Some aircraft can be very unstable when being towed (afterall they are essentially just big, top-heavy tricycles) so special care should be taken when going around turns, over large bumps, or on slopes when towing an aircraft.

What is the maximum speed limit on a runway?

There is no speed limit, aircraft have differant take-off speeds called V1 - is the critical engine failure recognition speed or takeoff decision speed. It is the decision speed nominated by the pilot which satisfies all safety rules, and above which the takeoff will continue even if an engine fails. The speed will vary between aircraft types and also due to aircraft weight, runway length, wing flap setting, engine thrust used, runway surface contamination and other factors V 2 - Takeoff safety speed. The speed at which the aircraft may safely become airborne with one engine inoperative. -Wikipedia


What is the maximum speed an airplane can go?

The maximum speed a airplane can go is a factor of it drag and trust. All planes have a Vne speed witch is the never exceed speed, which is were the amount of drag becomes so great that it will start to damage the aircraft. Many factors have play on this number, such as the camber of the wing, form drag, induced drag, and how strong the frame is. A C-173 Vne is 169, and a SR-22 can go muck 3 or 4. Maximum speed of a airplane is around 1000 km per hour


What is the minimum speed of an airplane and the average speed of an airplane?

Simply put, the minimum speed for all aircraft is Vs, the speed below which the wings cannot produce sufficient lift for level flight. You can further refine the answer by discussing Vmcg and Vmca which relate to multi-engine aircraft. These are the minimum controllable speeds on the ground and in the air (respectively) with an engine out and the other engines at maximum power. As for average speed, I'm not sure what you're after here, but one might say that the "average" speed of an aircraft would be the best speed at which it cruises. Cruise speeds are a function not only of aerodynamics, but of cost efficiencies as well and are determined by each operator according to its needs.


When does a fighter aircraft have maximum speed?

Like all aircraft, a fighter would have maximum speed at full throttle in a dive. In reality however, this seldom occurs. In many aircraft this puts extreme stress on the frame which is not desirable, and also running the engine at full throttle stresses the turbines and expends a LOT of fuel. In many fighter jets I have dealt with, we actually had a thin wire locked across the throttle quadrant so the pilot could only use 90-95 % of it's potential normally. - However he could push the lever to break the wire if needed.
