ASG 32 Airpseed Indicator

Post by Sprunga » Thu Dec 26, 2024 1:03 am

Hi everyone,

I've searched around and it appears no one has asked this question.

What are the numbers on the ASG32 airspeed indicator in a red diamond mean please? I have never seen anything like this before!

Cheers

Appears to be speed limit for each flap setting. In real life you risk damaging the flaps if you go faster than this speed with the indicated flap setting. Don't think Condor damages your flaps though :-)

They are Vne at various altitudes in thousands of meters. They are the "Condor Vne's" as Condor doesn't yet allow us to set the Vne according to the table in the flight manual.

Here is an example of a real life ASI with the diamonds (My club's LS8Neo):

Flaps speed limits are on the white arc, L and 5/6 only (orange arrows), the other flaps positions are not speed limited
