And there's plenty of evidence to suggest that Tiffany isn't quite who she says she is. But I guess if you're used to swallowing bull# in hefty gulps you kind of lose the ability to smell it after a while.

Your welcome.
To your opinion.
But you know you can't have that diagram without the definition of those curves and they come from the designer(s) for each aircraft. You do realize that airplanes aren't the only mechnical devices that have performance diagrams, right? They are not, by a long shot, unique to that industry. But in all cases the designer(s) create the diagrams.
Do you know what an accelerated stall is?
Former Space Shuttle Commander Curt Brown of Hudson, Wis., dominated the Jet Class, winning both the gold and silver races in his L-29 "Viper". Curt`s average speed was 507.124 mph.

Oh, my...the garbage never ends??

I do.
AND, it is totally irrelevant to the flight profiles of AAL 11 and UAL 175.

You really don't know understand this, do you? Those are the defintions for THOSE curves. Another thing you just clipped off the internet.

Note it was the "average" speed...OH, and 507 MPH = ~440 knots.
Never exceed speed: 820 km/h (442 knots, 510 mph)

All these supposed flight experts and you don't seem to have access to any original material....hmmm.
Here's a challenge by the way - try to post at least four times without spam for the Pffffft website - go ahead I dare you.

The flight operating strength of an airplane is presented on a graph whose horizontal scale [should be vertical scale -Ed.] is based on load factor (Fig. 17-19) [should be Fig. 17-50 - Ed.]. The diagram is called a V/g diagram - velocity versus "g" loads or load factor. Each airplane has its own V/g diagram which is valid at a certain weight and altitude.

Of course, the FACT that, in the case of UAL 175, its final airspeed was NOT a matter of being constant for a very long time --- in fact, it was only for a few brief moments, no one knows how long, exactly (or do they?).
Funny how the story of TWA 841 (the "Hoot" Gibson airshow) has been IGNORED....
But, in Fantasy Land, we dare not look under the costume, to see the man inside the pretty exterior trappings.....

not something you clipped from the internet and then fudge in the numbers.
