VS: Stalling Speed For a conventional aircraft (not Airbus), the reference stall speed is based on a load factor that is less than 1g. This gives a Stall Speed that is lower than the stall speed at 1g (1 Gravity). See Figure B6. All operating speeds are expressed as functions of this speed (for exam
