The lower boundary of the green arc; stall speed at particular configuration.	Vs1
Upper boundary of the white arc; maximum speed with the wing flaps extended.	Vfe
Upper boundary of the green arc, lower boundary of the yellow arc; only exceed this speed in smooth air and exercise caution beyond this speed.	Vno
Upper boundary of the yellow arc, red line; never exceed this speed.	Vne

Hint	Answer
Maximum maneuvering speed (does not correspond with specific marking), which can be calculated by multiplying the stall speed by the square root of the limit load factor.	Va
Speed for best angle of climb (does not correspond with specific marking), in which the airplane gains the most altitude in the least amount of distance.	Vx
Speed for best rate of climb (does not correspond with specific marking), in which the airplane gains the most altitude in the least amount of time.	Vy
Maximum speed with the landing gear extended (does not correspond with specific marking) on planes with retractable landing gear.	Vle
