The Vr (rotation for takeoff) speed of a Cessna 172 is around 55 kts. The final approach speed is around 60 kts. When landing pilots strive to stall the airplane at the same time that the wheels touch the ground this happens at around 50 kts.

What are the v speeds for a Cessna 414a?

The V speeds for a Cessna 414A are as follows: V1 (takeoff decision speed) is typically around 85 knots, Vr (rotation speed) is approximately 95 knots, and V2 (takeoff safety speed) is about 100 knots. The stall speed in landing configuration (Vs) is about 65 knots. Additionally, Vfe (maximum flap extended speed) varies with flap settings, typically around 120 knots for full flaps. Always refer to the specific aircraft's Pilot Operating Handbook for precise values.


What is the speed of an airplane when they takeoff a runway?

Generally for a small Cessna 152 the rotation speed is 50 kias. For larger jets I am not sure but it's a start


What is the Landing and takeoff speed of airplane?

This depends on the type of aeroplane. In the case of a VTOL jet the speed is actually zero.


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.

What is the landing and takeoff speed for an airplane?

The simplest answer: for an average-sized commercial jetliner with typical fuel and payload, the "takeoff speed" is around 130-160 knots, or about 150 to 200 miles per hour. The landing speed is more or less the same, usually a few knots slower. The landing/takeoff speed can range from 105 knots for a light commuter jet to nearly 200 knots for the Concorde. In reality, many factors affect the speed at which the pilot pulls back on the flight yoke (called VR or "rotation" speed) and the speed at which the aircraft can safely leave the ground. The minimum takeoff speed is typically at least 1.3 times the speed at which it is moving quickly enough to actually generate lift (called "VS"). The variables include aircraft weight (more weight requires a faster takeoff speed), temperature, airport elevation, humidity, and degree of flaps (up to a point, increased flaps create greater lift in the wings and may allow a slower takeoff speed). Therefore, in order to fly the aircraft as safely as possible, numerous speeds including VR (rotation speed), V1 (continue takeoff even with one engine out), V2 (safety climbing speed with one engine out) and VREF (touchdown speed) must be computed in advance. On most modern-day airliners, the cockpit is supplied with a Flight Management System in which pilots can enter weight and flap conditions and the system will compute several speeds used during takeoff and landing.


What is the meaning of 'V2' speed in aviation?

In aviation, 'V2' speed refers to the takeoff safety speed. It is the minimum speed at which an aircraft can safely continue a takeoff in the event of an engine failure. Pilots use V2 speed as a reference point during the takeoff phase to ensure the aircraft has enough performance to safely climb and maneuver.


What is the stall speed of a Cessna 172?

In landing configuration (full flaps), the stall speed is 40 knots (indicated airspeed). With flaps up it is 48 knots.

How do you calculate landing approach speed on an airplane Is their a Formula?

Approach speed depends on the plane, the load, and the wind. You can go full flaps on a Cessna 150 and land at about 50 mph (stall speed). If you are landing into a 30 mph headwind, you land at about 20 mph.
