Talk:Airspeed indicator

message: One of the most important V Speeds that is not marked on airspeed indicators for light aircraft is VA
 (maneuvering  speed, the speed at which full and abrupt control movement can be applied without causing structural
 damage.
From the V speed page : VNO is the speed at which structural damage can occur, VA being the speed at which stall can occur during sharp turns. So either this sentence is wrong or the V_speeds page isn't very clear--Yitscar 15:04, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Airspeed tape.png

message: I questions whether this section should be part of Airspeed indicator or a totally new article. A LRI is not an airspeed indicator. It also seems that the section "teaches" use of a LRI; Wikipedia is NOT a teacher.  There might also be an element of commercial promotion in the section. Comments from other users welcomed.Geoffrey Wickham (talk) 04:50, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Lift Reserve Indicator

message: To the author:
The speed indicator operation is based on measuring the difference between stagnation pressure and static pressure. This difference is the dynamic pressure, given by 0.5*rho*V2. In an S&L flight at sea level the dynamic pressure is thus proportional to V2. There must be some mechanical trick inside the indicator that makes its dial turn proportional to V rather than to V2.
I think this point is important enough to be explained in the article and I suggest you add a paragraph dedicated to it. (Myself, I don't know the answer.)
