To add to the above question what flap limit speeds do other operators have on their 767's. Our 767-300 a/c have a flap 1 of 250, and a flap 5 of 230, and flaps 15/20 of 210. This at high take off weights requires a close observation of speed so need to exceed flap limitation speeds. eg Vref30+80 @185 TOW is 255 knots where the limit speed is 250 and +40 is 215 and limit speed of 230.( we all know how long it takes to go flap 5 to flap 1 ) Can make an interesting departure in windy and stormy weather. I have heard that higher speeds are available for purchase from Boeing?
