I think it was on the instrument panel , in the centre , but I’m not at all sure- and I think it related to the aircraft max’ speed.
Could someone please explain what it was & what it meant?
Thanks again!
Could it be related to weight. Various aircraft can have a placard that can be removed, flipped over, and secured again to adjust the certified max allowable takeoff weight for landing fee purposes. That being said, it wasn't located on the instrument panel.
