Optimum speeds All speeds defined in this paragraph are computed within the speed envelope. The lower limit is the maximum between the minimum selectable speed (VLS) and the green dot speed (VFTO). The upper limit is the maximum performance speed, which is the smallest of:
-VMAX = maximum selectable speed (0.2 g buffet margin)
-VMO-10 kts or MMO-0.02
-VMX CRZ = maximum speed held in level flight with max cruise
thrust. Climb, cruise and descent Optimum speeds are optimized (within above speed envelope) according to:
-
the aircraft weight (GW) and center of gravity (CG)
-
the cost index (CI)
-
the cruise flight level (CRZ FL)
-
the wind and temperature models.
If there is no gross weight value defined, the optimum speed is
not computed. If there is no cost index or cruise flight level
selected, the speeds default to VFTO.
Climb optimum speed is a CAS/MACH pair which is frozen at
transition to CLIMB phase. It is updated if cost index, cruise
flight level or meteorological data are modified during climb.
Cruise optimum speed is optimized along the cruise, and is
updated in real-time according to the actual flight conditions.
In level flight, it is a MACH above FL 250, else it is a CAS.
Step speed is a CAS/MACH pair : the CAS is computed with the
lower CRZ FL, the MACH with the higher CRZ FL.
Descent optimum speed is a MACH/CAS pair which is frozen at
transition to DESCENT phase. Prior to descent, it can be
superseded by pilot entry.
GO AROUND optimum speed is VFTO.
(c)
ECON speeds (Ref. Fig. 005) The ECON speeds are the optimum speeds described above, limited to the applicable speed constraints and limits at actual or predicted aircraft position. The ECON speed corresponding to the nearest point for each flight phase is displayed on related PERF page below the ECON prompt. For the descent, the ECON prompt is replaced by AUTO SPEED if the optimum descent speed has been superseded by the pilot entry.
Time constraint option:

Figure 005
When a time constraint has been entered in the flight plan, the ECON speeds are adjusted between the origin or current aircraft position and the time constraint waypoint, within applicable constraints/limits and aircraft speed enveloppe, to attempt meeting the time constraint.
(d)
EXPEDITE speeds Expedite climb speed is the maximum speed between the maneuver speed (VMAN = F, S or VFTO according to present configuration) and VLS. Expedite descent speed is the minimum speed between VMAX (which takes into account VFE of the current configuration and VLE when the landing gear is extended), VMO-10 and MMO-00.2.
(e)
Holding pattern speeds
The holding speeds are defined as the minimum of:
-ICAO limitations
-Max endurance speed
-Nav data base holding pattern speed constraint (if one exists)
-Any flight plan speed constraints or limits that apply to the holding pattern.
-The predicted speed at the entry fix, if the holding pattern is
in approach, beyond the DECEL point. They are displayed on the FLIGHT PLAN A page. (Ref. Fig. 006) Before the holding fix is overflown, the Max Endurance speed is computed assuming a clean configuration. During the holding leg, the Max Endurance speed is calculated using the current aircraft configuration.
