Table 2-1 Vspeed Bug Labels
Vspeeds are categorized as either takeoff or landing. Takeoff Vspeed bugs are automatically turned off when
airspeed reaches 160 knots. The order in which the categories are displayed is determined by whether the
aircraft is on the ground or in the air. If the aircraft is on the ground, the takeoff Vspeeds are displayed at the
top of the Vspeed list. If the aircraft is in the air, the landing Vspeeds are displayed at the top of the list.
The maximum speed with approach flaps is displayed as a solid white triangle to the right of the airspeed
scale. This indication cannot be disabled.
