An aircraft’s cruising speed is about
Top Speed ¥ 1.6 mph. Powered air-
craft can reach Top Speed ¥ 2 mph at
the cost of burning 50% more fuel,
reducing Range. Supersonic aircraft
(Move 360+) can only use their full
Top Speed at high altitudes where the
air is thin (15,000’ and above). At low
altitudes, Top Speed rarely exceeds
350-400 (700-800 mph).
The GM should require control
rolls for landings during bad weather
or visibility, and when traveling at
high speeds at very low altitudes or
through mountains. Winds and
storms affect balloons and airships
much as they do sailing vessels.
Ground Speed: A powered air vehi-
cle can usually taxi at up to 2/3 its stall
speed.
