Maximum Structural Cruising Speed is the speed that
should not be exceeded except in smooth air, then only with
caution.
Never Exceed Speed is the speed limit that may not be
exceeded at any time.
Stalling Speed or the mm1mum steady flight speed at
which the airplane is controllable.
Stalling Speed or the minimum steady flight speed at
which the airplane is controllable in the landing configu-
ration at the most forward center of gravity.
Best Angle-of-Climb Speed is the speed which results in
the greatest gain of altitude in a given horizontal .distance.
Best Rate-of-Climb Speed is the speed which results in the

Pressure
Altitude
Outside Air Temperature is the free air static temperature.
It is expressed in either degrees Celsius (formerly Centi-
grade) or degrees Fahrenheit.
Standard Temperature is 15°C at sea level pressure alti-
tude and decreases by 2°C for each 1000 feet of altitude.
Pressure Altitude is the altitude read from an altimeter
when the altimeter's barometric scale has been set to 29.92
inches of mercury (1013 mb).
ENGINE POWER TERMINOLOGY
RPM

1-6
Brake Horsepower is the power developed by the engine.
Percent power values in this handbook are based on the
maximum continuous power rating.
Revolutions Per Minute is engine speed.
Manifold Pressure is a pressure measured in the engine's
induction system and is expressed in inches of mercury
(Hg).
