C-FVRV C150G Performance Data

Airspeed indicator has mph indicated on the outside, KIAS on the inside.

All speeds in Sections I and II are indicated mph, others are calibrated mph, unless otherwise stated.

Use the conversion table on page 5-2 to convert calibrated speeds to indicated.

When Cessna gives contradictory values, Pro Wings has chosen a safe speed for you to use.

Understand how to find all this data in the aircraft documents. You can be asked to find them on the flight test, and you will probably someday have to find them for another aircraft in an unfamiliar POH.

Bold speeds you must have memorized for the flight test.
