K(DC)-10 Vmbe graph

Starting the Vmbe graph, it begins with GW, converting it to a certain groundspeed. From there it calculates for wind (H/T), PA, OAT and flaps to come to a Vmbe-indicated.

In the description of this graph it is mentioned to use the assumed temperature derrived from the MTOGW graph.
Question if it is correct to use assumed temp, or should i use the AOT?

It would be wise to check with your design authority, but the KC10 manual, IIRC, states OAT, not assumed temp.
