Flight and Operations Manual of ATEC 321 Faeta UL aircraft
ATEC v.o.s. Libice nad Cidlinou, Czech Republic Page 11 of 53
2.1. Introduction
The Chapter 2 contains operational limits necessary for safe operation of the aircraft.
2.2. Air Speed (CAS)
Never exceed speed vNE 270 km/h 146 kt
Do not exceed this speed in any case!
Design manoeuvre speed vA 156 km/h 85 kt
After exceeding this speed, do not use full deflection of any control surfaces and do not make any
sudden control operations. An overload of the aircraft may occur!
Maximum design cruising speed vC 230 km/h 123 kt
Do not exceed this speed except the flight in smooth air, but with caution!
Max. cruising speed at severe turbulence vRA 224 km/h 122 kt
Do not exceed this speed at severe turbulence!
Max. speed, flaps deflected to I. (10 °)
FE,I
130 km/h 70 kt
Max. speed, flaps deflected to II. (20 °)
FE,II
120 km/h 65 kt
Max. speed, flaps deflected to III. (35 °)
FE,III
110 km/h 59 kt
Recommended speed, flaps deflected to III. VFE 90 km/h 49 kt
Never exceed these speed limits when flaps deflected!
Stall speed, flaps retracted vS1 64 km/h 35 kt
Flying this speed and with flaps retracted results in loss of lifting force and fall of the aircraft!
Stall speed in landing configuration vSO 51 km/h 28 kt
Flying this speed with flaps deflected at the position III. results in loss of lifting force
and fall of the aircraft!
