    Subject: Re: Yak 52 maneuver speed
    From: Todd McCutchan <todd@fastaircraft.com>
    Very interesting info Mike. Thanks for sharing. As usual here is info also from the FAA in the form of a SAIB which directly contradicts what they also say in FAR 23 which you have posted. http://www.eaa.org/news/2011/ce-11-17.pdf And straight from Far 23 http://www.ecfr.gov/cgi-bin/retrieveECFR?gp=&SID=cc49468715c3314f42170e1 50777c736&n=14y1.0.1.3.10&r=PART&ty=HTML#14:1.0.1.3.10.3.70.9 (c) Design maneuvering speed VA. For VA, the following applies: (1) VA may not be less than VS=88=9An where=94 (i) VS is a computed stalling speed with flaps retracted at the design weigh t, normally based on the maximum airplane normal force coefficients, CNA; an d (ii) n is the limit maneuvering load factor used in design (2) The value of VA need not exceed the value of VC used in design. And 23.425 and 23.441 are specific to Va as defined above which as you stated ap ply to horizontal and vertical tail surfaces. AOPA gets in the mix here: http://flighttraining.aopa.org/magazine/2012/July /feature-velocity.html And the PHAK (Pilots Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge) by the FAA it is de fines as "the maximum speed at which an aircraft may be stalled safely." And then defines it again as "(Va) - the maximum speed at which the structur al designs limit load can be imposed (either by gusts or full deflection of t he control surfaces) without causing structural damage. It is important to c onsider weight when referencing this speed." And again; "Va - the calibrated design maneuvering airspeed. This is the max imum speed at which the limit load can be imposed (either by gusts or full d eflection of the control surfaces) without causing structural damage. Operat ing at or below maneuvering speed does not provide structural protection aga inst multiple full control inputs in more than one axis at the same time." In the Airplane Flying Handbook (AFH) by the FAA it is defined as "Va - the d esign maneuvering speed. This is the "rough air" speed and the maximum speed for abrupt maneuvers. If during flight, rough air or severe turbulence is e ncountered, reduce the airspeed to maneuvering speed or less to minimize str ess on the airplane structure. It is important to consider weight when refer encing this speed." The US government, keeping the mud clear since the Air Commerce Act of 1926. Of course all of this is moot as we are discussing an uncertified Russian ai rplane. Yakovlev is really the only place I would trust to define just what t hey meant and why the speeds are what they are. I personally will stick to Vs x square root 7 for Va on the Yak 50/52. So as suming 57 KIAS Vs for a 52, Va = 150.8 KIAS. As Richard Hess also already stated, if you are pulling more than 4 - 5 g's y ou are doing it wrong. :) Todd McCutchan T-34A & Yak-50 Cell: (260) 402-1740 E-mail: todd@fastaircraft.com www.fastaircraft.com > On Jan 12, 2014, at 9:54 AM, Mike Beresford <mike_beresford@yahoo.co.uk> w rote: > > Hi all > > Manoeuvre speed is a defined speed in the design of the aircraft, if using standards such as FAR 23 / CS23.

    Subject: Re: Yak 52 maneuver speed
    Which does help muddy the water even more=C2- ;-)=0A=C2-=0AMy understan ding is that the confusion starts because the manoeuvre speed defined in th e design loads requirements (23.335) was not the same manoeuvre speed requi red in the operating limitations section (23.1507).

    Subject: Re: Yak 52 maneuver speed
    Hi Mike, It has been a day of interesting reading (for me anyway). I am now completely confused and believe that you are after all correct though I can=99t seem to prove you are correct in the current FAR Part 23.335c as it does not seem to allow for an arbitrary maneuvering speed above Vs=88=9An though it appears it previously may have. I just can=99t find it anywhere in current documents. So my current understanding is (under FAR Part 23): Vo =9COperating Speed=9D is equal to or less than Vs=88=9An. Aircraft will stall prior to reaching g limit (not sure if this provides negative g protection or not). Did not exist prior to 1993. New certified aircraft must placard this. Changes with weight. VA =9CDesign Maneuvering Speed=9D is equal to or greater than Vs=88=9An but is not required to be greater than Vc No structural protection is provided for the airframe, only the flight control surface? Certified aircraft will define this in the POH. May or may not change with weight? VNO =9CMax Structural Cruising Speed=9D and is no less than the minimum value of Vc allowed under 23.335, and not more than the lesser of Vc or .89 of Vne. Additionally it is the speed at which the aircraft can encounter sharp edged gusts of up to 25 fps (prior to 1963) now 50 fps (below 20,000=99 MSL) and not exceed the aircraft structural limits (+/-). An interesting side note is that 747 wake turb vortices are around 300 fps. Hmm VNE =9CNever Exceed Speed=9D and is not less than .9 VD and not more than the lesser of .9 VD or .9 of the maximum speed shown under FAR 23.251. Additionally it is the speed at which the aircraft can encounter sharp edged gusts of up to 15 fps (prior to 1963) and now 25 fps (below 20,000=99 MSL) and not exceed the aircraft structural limits (+/-). Outside of FAR Part 23 =9CManeuvering Speed=9D seems to depend on the actual aircraft being spoken about as it seems to be up to the aircraft manufacturer; which is bizarre. I will continue to base my personal =9CVA=9C on Vs=88=9An which also is a =9Cg available=9D indicator and =9Ccorner velocity=9D at max positive g. It is the best I can do with what I know / have available to me. I have no idea on what requirements/guidelines the Russians used in design of their aircraft (Yak 50 designed in 1972 / Yak 52 designed in 1973) I wish we had some Russian aeronautical engineers from Yak who could provide some insight to some of these crazy numbers I have seen for the 50 and 52.

As usual here is info also from the FAA in the form of a SAIB which directly contradicts what they also say in FAR 23 which you have posted. http://www.eaa.org/news/2011/ce-11-17.pdf And straight from Far 23 http://www.ecfr.gov/cgi-bin/retrieveECFR?gp= <http://www.ecfr.gov/cgi-bin/retrieveECFR?gp=&SID=cc49468715c3314f421 70e150777c736&n=14y1.0.1.3.10&r=PART&ty=HTML#14:1.0.1.3.10.3.70.9> &SID=cc49468715c3314f42170e150777c736&n=14y1.0.1.3.10&r=PART&ty=H TML#14:1.0.1.3.10.3.70.9 (c) Design maneuvering speed VA. For VA, the following applies: (1) VA may not be less than VS=88=9An where=94 (i) VS is a computed stalling speed with flaps retracted at the design weight, normally based on the maximum airplane normal force coefficients, CNA; and (ii) n is the limit maneuvering load factor used in design (2) The value of VA need not exceed the value of VC used in design. And 23.425 and 23.441 are specific to Va as defined above which as you stated apply to horizontal and vertical tail surfaces. AOPA gets in the mix here: http://flighttraining.aopa.org/magazine/2012/July/feature-velocity.html And the PHAK (Pilots Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge) by the FAA it is defines as "the maximum speed at which an aircraft may be stalled safely." And then defines it again as "(Va) - the maximum speed at which the structural designs limit load can be imposed (either by gusts or full deflection of the control surfaces) without causing structural damage. It is important to consider weight when referencing this speed." And again; "Va - the calibrated design maneuvering airspeed. This is the maximum speed at which the limit load can be imposed (either by gusts or full deflection of the control surfaces) without causing structural damage. Operating at or below maneuvering speed does not provide structural protection against multiple full control inputs in more than one axis at the same time." In the Airplane Flying Handbook (AFH) by the FAA it is defined as "Va - the design maneuvering speed. This is the "rough air" speed and the maximum speed for abrupt maneuvers. If during flight, rough air or severe turbulence is encountered, reduce the airspeed to maneuvering speed or less to minimize stress on the airplane structure. It is important to consider weight when referencing this speed." The US government, keeping the mud clear since the Air Commerce Act of 1926. Of course all of this is moot as we are discussing an uncertified Russian airplane. Yakovlev is really the only place I would trust to define just what they meant and why the speeds are what they are. I personally will stick to Vs x square root 7 for Va on the Yak 50/52. So assuming 57 KIAS Vs for a 52, Va = 150.8 KIAS. As Richard Hess also already stated, if you are pulling more than 4 - 5 g's you are doing it wrong. :) Todd McCutchan T-34A & Yak-50 Cell: (260) 402-1740 E-mail: todd@fastaircraft.com http://www.fastaircraft.com/ On Jan 12, 2014, at 9:54 AM, Mike Beresford <mike_beresford@yahoo.co.uk> wrote: Hi all Manoeuvre speed is a defined speed in the design of the aircraft, if using standards such as FAR 23 / CS23. The Russian definition may well differ. Va is a single speed, and does not vary with aircraft weight or CG. Although the speed is usually defined in terms of the formula Vs*=88=9An, this represents the minimum Va. It may be higher than that, if the designer elects to designate a higher number. (See FAR 23.335(c)). This may well be the case of an aerobatic aircraft? The speed that most pilots would describe as "manoeuvre speed" is now defined as "operating moneuvering speed", Vo. (See FAR 23.1507). To quote the FAA Advisory Circular (23-19): 48. What is the design maneuvering speed VA? a. The design maneuvering speed is a value chosen by the applicant. It may not be less than Vs=88=9A n and need not be greater than Vc, but it could be greater if the applicant chose the higher value. The loads resulting from full control surface deflections at VA are used to design the empennage and ailerons in part 23, =C2=A7=C2=A7 23.423, 23.441, and 23.455. b. VA should not be interpreted as a speed that would permit the pilot unrestricted flight-control movement without exceeding airplane structural limits, nor should it be interpreted as a gust penetration speed. Only if VA = Vs =88=9An will the airplane stall in a nose-up pitching maneuver at, or near, limit load factor. For airplanes where VA>VS=88=9An, the pilot would have to check the maneuver; otherwise the airplane would exceed the limit load factor. c. Amendment 23-45 added the operating maneuvering speed, VO, in =C2=A7 23.1507. VO is established not greater than VS=88=9An, and it is a speed where the airplane will stall in a nose-up pitching maneuver before exceeding the airplane structural limits. Hopefully this doesn't complicate things too much. Blue skies Mike Beresford On Sunday, 12 January 2014, 12:47, Jim Burke <jbyak52@gmail.com> wrote: Good discussion. Anyone who plans to flys their airplane near max performance needs to have a good understanding of the available g's in all flight regimes. Corner speed is probably the most critical since it gives you the speed for max g's. Below it and you are limited in low altitude pull outs and other situations which could be critical.

If you are flying at weights below MTOW the Va will also be lower as it decreases as weight decreases (rule of thumb is 1 knot per 100 lbs). Again you can calculate this using the same formula if you know the lower Vs or if Vs is unknown for the reduced weight you can calculate using <image003.png> Va would be the maneuvering speed you previously calculated based on MTOW. W2 is the current weight and W1 is the MTOW. Cheers!

    Subject: Re: Yak 52 maneuver speed
    The phrase I found in the Yak 52 manual is "Maximum airspeed at maximum g - 360 kmph (194 KIAS). This does not appear to be Va but a restriction to the maximum airspeed while pulling 7 g's. Alternatively I found the phrase "airspeed range in normal flight 130 - 300 kmph (70 - 162 KIAS)". This appears to be similar to our "green arc" but that is just my guess. Interestingly I also found "minimum speed for level flight 130 kmph (70 KIAS)" while stall speed is listed as 110 kmph / 59 KIAS (upright), 140 7kmph / 76 KIAS (inverted), and 100 kmph / 54 KIAS (flaps extended). I don't understand the difference between "minimum level flight speed" and "stall speed". It's quite a large delta. Perhaps there is some sort of safety buffer there for the DOOSAF students but that is just my guess. I would think Va (as I understand it) is around 291 kmph / 157 KIAS.

    Very interesting and informative discussion, many thanks to all participants. No time to read all the info this morning but saving for later. I have, for many years, made it a habit to limit rolling / turning maneuvers with both the Harvard and CJ to Va or less at not over 0.6 X the limit load factor or < 4 G's for both types. Can't remember where that info came from for sure but possibly from an old RAF POH for the Harvard Mk2. Look forward to reading all of the postings.

    "Rolling g" or "asymmetric loading" is often limited to 2/3 of normal g and is a good practice for any type unless the POH calls for a different adjustment.
