Best angle-of-climb speed(VX) is what and means what? 1 point

is important when a short-field takeoff is required to clear an obstacle. It will allow the
pilot to gain the most altitude in a given distance

is the airspeed that will give the pilot the most altitude in a given period of time

is the airspeed that provides the best lift/drag ratio angle of attack in a power-off
glide. It will allow the airplane to glide the farthest

Clear selection

This is the actual speed that the aircraft is travelling over the ground. It is 1 point

found by using our anticipated TAS and then correcting for the wind speed
and direction at altitude.

Pressure altitude is the altitude read on your altimeter when the instrument 1 point
is adjusted to indicate height above

As an aircraft climbs, ambient pressure decreases allowing the aneroid 1 point

wafers to expand. Movement of the wafers is transmitted through levers

and gears to a dial which indicates altitude on the face of the instrument.

An error that is caused by the position of the pitot. Also can be the angle at 1 point

which the pitot meets the airflow. If we correct IAS for that error we would
get CAS CALIBRATED AIRSPEED.
