Thanks for exemple O\ZON.
So is my understanding of the strategy wrong when I say:
Because the angle with 1.4 vs is steepest it is best for climb limits to be as close as possible to 1.4vs in case of no very close limiting obstacle - where the 1.2 and the 1.4 vs climb outs cross each other.
In your second exemple the reason for the low speeds should be a short runway...
After all, the reason to bring up the subject is that I'm flying a F100 again and unfortunately here the 1.2vs climb out speed is the end of the game.
I would like to know whether only Airbus is using variable v2 speeds or not; who can help and eventually provide an exemple for F100 with the difference in possible take-off weight thanks to higher climb speeds?
