    Stall Speed Calculator

    Uploaded by

    gauravamberkar
    This document contains a stall speed calculator for aircraft. It lists variables needed to calculate stall speed such as aircraft weight, wing area, air density, lift coefficients. The user enters values in blue cells and the estimated stall speeds with flaps up (VS1) and down (VS0) are displayed. The calculator assumes sufficient elevator control and ignores other factors to provide basic estimates of minimum flying speeds.
