What is the maximum speed for approach when extending the flaps?

The maximum speed for approach when extending the flaps in the King Air 350 is 202 KIAS. This speed is critical for ensuring safe handling characteristics and compliance with aerodynamic limits during the flaps' extension process. Extending the flaps at higher speeds could lead to undesirable aerodynamic effects, such as increased drag or difficulty in controlling the aircraft given the sudden change in lift characteristics.

Knowing the correct maximum speed for flap extension is crucial for pilots to help manage the aircraft effectively during approach and landing, enhancing safety and preventing potential over-speed conditions that can stress or damage the flap system.

In the context of the other speeds provided, they represent different flight stages or configurations, but only the option representing 202 KIAS aligns with the specified approach limitation for flap extension. Understanding and memorizing these limitations is essential for operational safety and is a key part of training for pilots flying the King Air 350.
