Additionally, a pilot should report any of the following events:: When vacating any previously assigned altitude or flight level for a newly assigned altitude or flight level ( AIM 5-3-3 ) When an altitude change will be made if operating on a clearance specifying VFR-on-top. ( AIM 5-3-3 ) When an approach has been missed. (

The actual indicator face measures speed in nautical miles per hour (‘knots’) and has a single white needle that is the indicated airspeed (IAS). Before a flight, the airspeed indicator should read straight up and down unless a strong wind blows directly into the system. If oriented otherwise, the system has an error.

They try to make the underlying airspace easily navigable by visual flight rules (VFR) aircraft. This effectively limits traffic in Class B to 250 knots due to 14 CFR § 91.117(a). Traffic flying under a shelf or through a VFR corridor needs to stay below 200 knots. Expect considerable traffic near Class B airspace.
