09 DECISION SPEED V'S AIRBORNE SPEED
In the Catalina Decision Speed (V1) will nearly always be higher than Take-Off Speed. A
speed of 80 Kts has therefore been determined to separate being 'on the ground’ (<80kts)
or 'in the air' (>80kts).
Below 80 kts, if an emergency arises, the aircraft is to be placed firmly on the ground and
the procedures for 'Engine failure during Take-Off On The Ground' are to be followed.
Above 80 Kts the aircraft will be truly airborne and the procedures for 'Engine Failure In
The Air' are to be followed.
