| Jun 20, 2016 at 15:36 | comment | added | Ryan Mortensen | @vvanscherpenseel yes, but it does vary between the same model of airplane. What I commented is for a C-172N, but the answer I provided is from the .PDF you linked. so its 40KIAS - down/48KIAS - up, for you. | |

| Jun 20, 2016 at 15:24 | comment | added | user14240 | @RyanMortensen: Thanks for your reply. 33/44 meaning flaps-down/flaps-up? | |
| Jun 20, 2016 at 15:23 | comment | added | Ryan Mortensen | @vvanscherpenseel This is going to vary even in the same model due to variants and model years. This is a broad question. Maybe ask another local pilot to review the POH with you? The 172 I fly now is 33/44 KIAS. | |
| Jun 20, 2016 at 13:12 | comment | added | user14240 | I was checking the CAS to IAS conversion for higher speeds and found only small differences. I incorrectly assumed this would translate the same way for low speeds as well. This is exactly what I was looking for. If you could leave a full answer I'll accept it. Just two sub-questions as follow-up: 1. Why isn't KIAS used in page ii as well? 2. Google returns this result for "Cessna 172 v speeds": wiki.flightgear.org/Cessna_172P#Airspeeds, which says Vs0 is 33kt (CAS). Is the Flightgear simulation based on a different Skyhawk model? | |

| Jun 20, 2016 at 11:56 | comment | added | user14240 | More specifically: are they actually different speeds, and if so: what is the lowest speed you can fly/land before stalling? (Apologies if this doesn't make sense, I just started studying for my PPL :) | |
