I get the feeling you are arguing for the sake of arguing now.
- We agree that Vmc can have many different values.
- It's clear that you don't have a problem with this.
- For my part, I accept that this is true - I have stated that I don't like it, but there's nothing I can do about it.
- In all other respects, we seem to agree.
As far as I'm concerned, there's nothing else to discuss. I've found this conversation useful and enlightening - I will no longer assume, when I hear people use the term Vmc, that it's being used to describe minimum control speed in any particular circumstances as I used to, but will seek clarification if required. And I'll give clarification where required when I use the term Vmc myself.
You also said I don't understand what Vmca means. It's a pity you can't concisely correct my misunderstanding, rather than referring me back to the same posts that I had misunderstood earlier. Generally, when someone misunderstands something I say, I try to re-word it to help them understand.
However, I re-read much of what you've written, and I think you may also be suggesting that Vmca can have many values, that it doesn't only refer to the certification criteria used to work out the red-line value but that it can also be used to refer to actual in-flight values. Is that what you mean? If so, then I will take everything I've just said about Vmc and apply it to Vmca too.
If you feel I've still misunderstood something, then I look forward to being further enlightened when you return from flying. If you want to disagree with my opinion then that's fine, but I can't see any point in debating further something on which I know we disagree.
