Flaps 1+F and Flex 46



As soon as I select 10 degrees OAT I get a different result.

V1 133
VR 152
V2 159

Flaps 2 and still Flex 46. This takeoff is not obstacle limited anymore.

So, you can not just blindly trust that your performance will not change with a change in temperature?
I don't think the temperature change is driving the different v speeds in this example.
