Airbus Terms and Abbreviations (Selection)

V-Speeds

V-Speed	Term
V1	The highest speed during take-off that you can reject the take-off and still stop on the runway.
V2	Take-off safety speed, where if an engine fails, climb out and control is still guaranteed.
VA	Maximum design maneuvering speed, the maximum speed to do full control deflection in normal or alternate law.
V_APP	Speed for flying down the approach.
VD / MD	Maximum structural design limit speed and Mach
VF	Design Flap Speed
V_FE	Maximum Flap Extended Speed.
V_FEN	Predictive V_FE at next flap/slat position
V_FTO	Final Takeoff Speed
V_LE	Maximum gear extension speed, often lower than the operating speed to prevent gear door damage.
V_LO	Maximum gear operating speed, which means the max speed for the gear being down.
V_LOF	Lift-off Speed
V_LS	Lower Selectable Speed
V_MAX	Airbus for the maximum speed for the current configuration, represented by black and red strip at the top of the airspeed indication.
V_MCA	Minimum speed in the air that if one engine fails and the other is at TO thrust, you can still control the aircraft with the primary flight controls up to a bank of 5 degrees.
V_MCG	Minimum speed on the ground that if one engine fails and the other is at TO thrust, you can still control the aircraft with the primary flight controls.
V_MO / M_MO	Maximum operating speed, also has M_MO for maximum Mach number.
VR	Rotate speed, the point where you lift the nose off the runway.
V_REF	Reference speed for a normal approach, what you aim to touchdown roughly at.
V_S	Stalling Speed at which Airplane is Controllable
V_S1	Stalling Speed or Minimum Steady Flight Speed obtained in a specified Configuration
V_SO	Stalling Speed or Minimum Steady Flight Speed in the Landing configuration
V_SW	Airbus for when the stall warning will activate, represented by a black and red strip at the bottom of the airspeed indicator, when there has been a failure to affect the flight control laws.
VX	Speed of Best Angle of Climb
VY	Speed for Best Rate of Climb
V_αMAX	Airbus for the speed that the maximum angle of attack (AoA) can be without the aircraft stalling, shown by the top of a red strip at the bottom of the airspeed indicator.
V_αPROT	Airbus for the speed that the angle of attack (AoA) protection will become active to stop the aircraft from stalling, shown as being the top of the black and amber strip at the bottom of the airspeed indicator.

Additional Speeds

V-Speed	Term
F	Minimum speed at which the flaps may be retracted at takeoff (i.e., CONF 2/3). Also the minimum speed in approach when in CONF 2 or 3
S	Minimum speed at which the slats may be retracted at takeoff. Also the minimum speed in approach when in CONF 1.
O or GD	Green dot speed, engine-out operating speed with flaps up, best lift-to-drag ratio speed, also corresponds to final takeoff speed.
