Electra Pilot's Manual (http://www.aussieairliners.org/scrapbook/l188/pilotmanual.html)

This has no V-speeds but will help you in general.

Many thanks for that......very helpful. Just 1 more question tho. Is the Electra in the Performace Class A catagory?

Don't V speeds change for every flight dependant on weight, runway length, wet/dry runway etc? ......Correct

Empty would be roughly:

V1-100, V2-120, Vf-140, Vzf- 165, Vat- 116

Medium load roughly:

V1- 104, V2- 125, Vf- 145, Vzf- 172, Vat- 124

Is the Electra in the Performace Class A catagory?....Absolutely

Sorry for disturbing anyones sleep.......Hope that helps :ok:
