A very useful post. Thanks Sebastien. For interest, when I take up an unknown aircraft I always get to a safe altitude using a 'higher than normal' indicated cruise speed. Once there, I 'hunt' for the incipient INDICATED stall speed on the ASI - ie just before the stall. I then make sure that I always keep my speed at least 1.3x that indicated speed. (1.3xVs is the 'recommended' approach for many aircraft' but I often use Vs x 1.5 and allow the speed to bleed close to the ground - but that is…

More posts like this would be great (shame we cant see the video here).<br />

Take care.
