777 AOA doesn't have any indices, like L/D, on it.


It has fixed marks at every 5 units. There is no guidance given on what units produce L/D, endurance, etc.


Cruise is typically in the mid to upper 2.x's. Indicates in even decimals - 2.2, 2.4, etc.


Stall margin indicator is approx. 6-7 units at cruise.
At 10,000' it's closer to approx. 10 units.




737 is very similar but cruise is typically 2.8 -3.0 and the stall margin indicator is closer to the 5 unit mark, or approx. 6 units.
