Hi all,

:ugh:

Wonder if anyone could give or direct me to a detailed summary of the meaning of all the V speeds used in aviation (eg limits of angle of bank etc....)

Try these for starters.

At a quick glance they seem OK although not too detailed, but a simple google search came up with loads of hits........

Thanks for those, but they don't really go into enough detail. Some specific things like:
Min contol speeds wrt engine failures and bank angles associated,
Max bank angles in general,
If a min speed is given for a flap setting, how controlable is the aircraft at that speed?
Vref+? = V2 for go around....................
...........etc etc

That was really really helpful, and a great source of all kinds of info. You just lifted a cloud!

Now just have to motivate myself to read it all!

In my aircraft SE V2 is limited to 15° bank angle with overbank protection of 15°(pilot skill)
Minimum clean speed is 30° etc..
I've a good list of different limitation according the configuration listed by aircraft manufacturer complying regulation.
You may check with your performance engineer or manuals for further details.
by the way what's your aircraft type?
good luck
