Section 25.105 14 CFR Ch. I (1-1-19 Edition) (3) The airplane in other respects (such as flaps, landing gear, and ice accretions) in the condition existing in the test or performance standard in which VSR is being used; (4) The weight used when VSR is being used as a factor to determine compliance with a required performance standard; (5) The center of gravity position that results in the highest value of reference stall speed; and (6) The airplane trimmed for straight flight at a speed selected by the applicant, but not less than 1.13VSR and not greater than 1.3VSR. (c) Starting from the stabilized trim condition, apply the longitudinal control to decelerate the airplane so that the speed reduction does not exceed one knot per second. (d) In addition to the requirements of paragraph (a) of this section, when a device that abruptly pushes the nose down at a selected angle of attack (e.g., a stick pusher) is installed, the reference stall speed, VSR, may not be less than 2 knots or 2 percent, whichever is greater, above the speed at which the device operates. spaschal on DSK3GDR082PROD with CFR [Doc.

(a) The takeoff speeds prescribed by Section 25.107, the accelerate-stop distance prescribed by Section 25.109, the takeoff path prescribed by Section 25.111, the takeoff distance and takeoff run prescribed by Section 25.113, and the net takeoff flight path prescribed by Section 25.115, must be determined in the selected configuration for takeoff at each weight, altitude, and ambient temperature within the operational limits selected by the applicant - (1) In non-icing conditions; and (2) In icing conditions, if in the configuration used to show compliance with Section 25.121(b), and with the most critical of the takeoff ice accretion(s) defined in appendices C and O of this part, as applicable, in accordance with Section 25.21(g): (i) The stall speed at maximum takeoff weight exceeds that in non-icing conditions by more than the greater of 3 knots CAS or 3 percent of VSR; or (ii) The degradation of the gradient of climb determined in accordance with Section 25.121(b) is greater than one-half of the applicable actual-to-net takeoff flight path gradient reduction defined in Section 25.115(b). (b) No takeoff made to determine the data required by this section may require exceptional piloting skill or alertness. (c) The takeoff data must be based on - (1) In the case of land planes and amphibians: (i) Smooth, dry and wet, hard-surfaced runways; and (ii) At the option of the applicant, grooved or porous friction course wet, hard-surfaced runways. (2) Smooth water, in the case of seaplanes and amphibians; and (3) Smooth, dry snow, in the case of skiplanes. (d) The takeoff data must include, within the established operational limits of the airplane, the following operational correction factors: (1) Not more than 50 percent of nominal wind components along the takeoff path opposite to the direction of takeoff, and not less than 150 percent of nominal wind components along the takeoff path in the direction of takeoff. (2) Effective runway gradients. [Doc.

(a) V1 must be established in relation to VEF as follows: (1) VEF is the calibrated airspeed at which the critical engine is assumed to fail. VEF must be selected by the applicant, but may not be less than VMCG determined under Section 25.149(e). (2) V1, in terms of calibrated airspeed, is selected by the applicant; however, V1 may not be less than VEF plus the speed gained with critical engine inoperative during the time interval between the instant at which the critical engine is failed, and the instant at which the pilot recognizes and reacts to the engine failure, as indicated by the pilot-s initiation of the first action (e.g., applying brakes, reducing thrust, deploying speed brakes) 210 VerDate Sep<11>2014 12:50 Apr 30, 2019 Jkt 247046 PO 00000 Frm 00220 Fmt 8010 Sfmt 8010 Y:\SGML\247046.XXX 247046
