Diamond DA 62 - Meteorological Terms

General DA 62 AFM
v
NO
: Maximum Structural Cruising Speed. This speed may be exceeded only in
smooth air, and then only with caution.
v
R
: Rotation Speed.
v
S
: Stalling Speed, or the minimum continuous speed at which the airplane is still
controllable in the given configuration.
v
S0
: Stalling Speed, or the minimum continuous speed at which the airplane is still
controllable in the landing configuration.
v
S1
: Stalling Speed, or the minimum continuous speed at which the airplane is still
controllable with flaps and landing gear retracted.
v
SSE
: Minimum Control Speed for Schooling. Minimum speed necessary in case of
one engine intentionally inoperative/idle (training purposes).
v
x
: Best Angle-of-Climb Speed.
v
y
: Best Rate-of-Climb Speed.
v
YSE
: Best Rate of-Climb Speed for one engine inoperative.
v
50ft
: Speed at 50 ft above take-off surface.
(b) Meteorological Terms
ISA: International Standard Atmosphere. Conditions at which air is identified
as an ideal dry gas. The temperature at mean sea level is 15 °C (59 °F),
air pressure at MSL is 1013.25 hPa (29.92 inHg); the temperature
gradient up to the altitude at which the temperature reaches -56.5 °C
(-69.7 °F) is -0.0065 °C/m (-0.00357 °F/ft), and above this 0 °C/m (0
°F/ft).
MSL: Mean Sea Level.
OAT: Outside Air Temperature.
