Maximum Operating Limit Speed is the speed limit that may not be deliberately exceeded in normal flight operations.

When the airplane manufacturer selects a “maximum continuous power” less than the rated "maximum continuous power” listed in the Engine Type Data Sheet, the maximum continuous power listed in the Airplane Type Data Sheet is used to show compliance with the applicable airworthiness standards and is the value shown in the Pilot＇s Operating Handbook.

This Section of the Pilot＇s Operating Handbook shall contain only those limitations required by regulation or necessary for safe operation of the airplane and approved by the regulatory authority.

Route segment is a part of a route, each end of which is identified by: a geographical location; or a point at which a definite radio fix can be established.

Propeller Governor is the device that regulates the rpm of the engine/propeller by increasing or decreasing the propeller pitch, through a pitch change mechanism in the propeller hub.

Turbine engine tachometers usually measure speed as a percentage of the maximum speed of the turbine(s), unless specifically referred to the propeller.

The exhaust gas temperature indicator, on piston engine powered airplanes, is the instrument used to identify the lean fuel flow mixtures for various power settings.

Pressure Altitude refers to altitude measured from standard sea level pressure (29.92 in. hg.) by a pressure or barometric altimeter. It is the indicated pressure altitude corrected for position and instrument error. In this Handbook, altimeter instrument errors are assumed to be zero.

Airplane certification conditions include one engine becoming inoperative and windmilling (or, in airplanes with autofeathering devices, feathered), not more than a 5° bank toward the operative engine, takeoff power on the operative engine, landing gear up, flaps in the takeoff position, and the most critical C.G.

Wing and power loading is based on the Maximum Takeoff Weight and the Takeoff Horsepower Rating and the Wing Area.

Pilots Operating Handbooks are appropriate on airplanes having a certification basis of FAR 23 except Commuter Category.
