When it comes to the speed of an airplane such as wind, route and of course the technical characteristics of each aircraft. There are many factors to consider.

In addition, the maximum speed a passenger plane can reach varies depending on the model and type of aircraft. Again about speed limits We can sort of say something.

The speed of the aircraft is limited due to several factors.

While maximum speed at low altitude depends on structural constraints The limitation at high altitude is due to aerodynamic reasons. For example, the Airbus A320 cannot exceed the cruising speed of the M.79.

The Federal Aviation Administration, which is responsible for aviation safety and regulation, regulates every aircraft operating worldwide. certification with the minimum and maximum flight speeds of the make and model is publishing.

Let’s give some examples:

concord

• The Boeing 747-8 is one of the fastest commercial aircraft and 1062 kilometers can get up to speed.
• Boeing 747-400 is approximately 1055 km He can accelerate.
• Another Boeing aircraft; long-range wide-body 777, 1036 km/h It can fly fast.
• Airbus A380, the world’s largest passenger aircraft, 1050 kilometers He can accelerate.
• Moreover, a British-French co-produced supersonic passenger aircraft is, exceptionally, faster than supersonic passenger aircraft such as the Concorde. 2,180 kilometers There are also those who reach speed.

As we said at the beginning, all these speeds are the speeds that can be achieved at the cruising altitude of the aircraft and under optimal conditions. with external factors can change.
