Official V-speed definitions?

[CaptCrispy]

Anyone know if and where there are official (ICAO, EASA, UK CAA) definitions of v-speeds?

[Keef]

You can see the FAA's list here.

Add VYSE Speed for best rate of climb with one engine out (on a twin).

I'm sure the CAA etc lists are around, but this list'll do for most folks.

Don't know if you've seen this already, but Wikipedia's Big Book of Lies has this:

Thanks all, I've seen these other lists but was curious if there are official definitions from EASA and/or CAA.

[Keef]

They just might be in LASORS somewhere, although I don't recall seeing them there. The index is no help.

[CaptCrispy]

I'm a very fussy person and like to find official sources of information, LASORS helps to an extent, but no definitions

[Keef]

If you have the patience, then go here.

You can browse the entire 14CFR on the web, which should satisfy the desire for aeronautical detail. I don't know of a similar site for EASA.

I suspect the answer will be hiding somewhere in the CS-23/CS-25 type documents.

Edit: http://www.easa.europa.eu/agency-measur ... nt%202.pdf at pp21 et seq has a list of basic definitions, but nothing particularly technical.

[Keef]

That's a good Eurolist, but still no Vyse which is one of the more important ones for certain pilots!

[Anonystude]

You're right, Keef, and that's odd! There's pages and pages in Stinton's Flying Qualities and Flight Testing of the Aeroplane at pp123-126, which does feature Vyse. Don't know why the Eurotechs didn't feature it in the Definitions. If I have the time I'll poke around in CS-25, in which it is certain to be hiding.

[CaptCrispy]

Thanks all, much better.

I agree - it's a useful first stab at a list, but there are some surprising omissions - for example, Vno is missing.
