Velocity Given By Pull-Down Maneuver Calculator

In a pull-down maneuver, the velocity refers to the speed at which an aircraft descends during the maneuver. When executing a pull-down, the aircraft transitions from level or climbing flight to a descending trajectory. The velocity attained during this maneuver depends on factors such as the aircraft’s initial altitude, angle of descent, aerodynamic characteristics, and engine power. The velocity achieved in a pull-down maneuver contributes to the aircraft’s kinetic energy and affects its control and stability during the descent. The formula to calculate Velocity as follows:

• $v$ is the velocity in m.
• $R$ is the turn radius in m.
• $g$ is the  gravity in m/s².
• $n$ is the load factor.
