Pointers V MO Pointer (Barber Pole) At low altitudes, the V MO pointer indicates the maximum operating airspeed for the aircraft. V MO on the 767 is between 340-360 knots (depending on aircraft serial number). Airspeed Pointer The airspeed pointer shows the indicated airspeed in knots as generated by the Air Data Computer.

It shows the helicopter flying normally, aligned to the runway, and then begin a gentle climb. The helicopter turned left to return to the airport, travelling at about 85 knots. The pilot told the airport tower controller that he may need the runway. The indicated airspeed had fallen below 65 knots and was still decreasing.

Chess In the Air

I was listening intently to the ASOS for wind or gusts, letting it repeat 5 or 6 times with the exact same report: 9 kts straight down the runway; no gusts. That was the runway we would use to land. It’s worth noting that Shmulik had a close call in the past: a jet pulled onto the runway in front of him with no radio call.

To get the extra lift required for the turns, I had to dive to get extra airspeed so that the plane could turn at that same AOA. Tedious numerical interpolation is not required when adjusting airspeed for weight, contrary to the claims of some AOA advocates. That phenomenon is best named Failure to Achieve Sustained Flight (FASF).

The functionality is smart, in that it zooms in and out, adding and subtracting info from the display based on your speed and location relative to a runway—whether you are holding in the ramp area or taxiing onto the active for takeoff, for examples. It also prevents you from retracting the flaps when airspeed is too low.
