Maneuvering speed
In aviation, the maneuvering speed of an aircraft is an airspeed limitation selected by the designer of the aircraft. At speeds close to, and faster than, the maneuvering speed, full deflection of any flight control surface should not be attempted because of the risk of damage to the aircraft structure. The maneuvering speed of an aircraft is shown on a cockpit placard and in the aircraft's flight manual but is not commonly shown on the aircraft's airspeed indicator. In the context of air combat maneuvering (ACM), the maneuvering speed is also known as corner speed or  cornering speed. Implications. It has been widely misunderstood that flight below maneuvering speed will provide total protection from structural failure. In response to the destruction of American Airlines Flight 587, a CFR Final Rule was issued clarifying that "flying at or below the design maneuvering speed does not allow a pilot to make multiple large control inputs in one airplane axis or single full control inputs in more than one airplane axis at a time". Such actions "may result in structural failures at any speed, including below the maneuvering speed." Design maneuvering speed V. V is the design maneuvering speed  and is a calibrated airspeed. Maneuvering speed cannot be slower than formula_1 and need not be greater than V. If formula_2 is chosen by the manufacturer to be exactly formula_1 the aircraft will stall in a nose-up pitching maneuver before the structure is subjected to its limiting aerodynamic load. However, if formula_2 is selected to be greater than formula_1, the structure will be subjected to loads which exceed the limiting load unless the pilot checks the maneuver. The maneuvering speed or maximum operating maneuvering speed depicted on a cockpit placard is calculated for the maximum weight of the  aircraft. Some Pilot's Operating Handbooks also present safe speeds for weights less than the maximum. The formula used to calculate a safe speed for a lower weight is formula_6, where V is maneuvering speed (at maximum weight), W is actual weight, W is maximum weight. Maximum operating maneuvering speed V. Some aircraft have a maximum operating maneuvering speed V. Note that this is a different concept than design maneuvering speed. The concept of maximum operating maneuvering speed was introduced to the US type-certification standards for light aircraft in 1993. The maximum operating maneuvering speed is selected by the  aircraft designer and cannot be more than formula_1, where V is the stalling speed of the aircraft, and "n" is the maximal allowed positive load factor.
