Title: Explain airspeed as it relates to aircraft performance.
Course: Aircraft Pilot Training I (20053-I) > Section: Examining Aircraft Instruments, Components, Systems, and Performance

Explanation should include the following:

- The maximum-level flight speed for the aircraft is obtained when the power or thrust required equals the maximum power or thrust available from the powerplant.
- The minimum-level flight airspeed is not usually defined by thrust or power requirement since conditions of stall or stability and control problems generally predominate.
