Vs1g, Vs and Vsr Speeds Explained!

Vs1g

Vs

Vsr

Vs1g corresponds to maximum lift coefficient i.e. Clmax. Clmax is the condition when angle of attack is maximum and load factor is equal to one. Vs corresponds to conventional stall condition. This is the time when lift suddenly collapses and load factor is less than one. Vs is less than Vs1g.

V = 0.94 Vs1g

Vsr stands for reference stall speed selected by manufacturer for regulatory purposes. Vsr can not be less than Vs1 so for all practical purposes Vsr is equal to Vs1g.
