What is the maximum airspeed for flying through turbulence?

The maximum airspeed for flying through turbulence is defined by the maneuvering speed, or Va, which is the maximum speed at which a pilot can safely maneuver the aircraft in turbulent conditions without risking structural damage. This speed allows the aircraft to absorb the impact of turbulence without overstressing its components.

In this situation, the choice of 195 KIAS corresponds to the recommended safe airspeed for the T-6A in turbulent air. At this airspeed, the aircraft can handle significant changes in motion due to turbulence more effectively, providing a balance between control and structural integrity. Pilots use this airspeed to ensure that even if the aircraft encounters unexpected shifts in airflow, it will not experience excessive forces that can lead to dangerous situations.

The other airspeeds provided in the choices either exceed this safe limit or do not meet it, making them less suitable for turbulent conditions. Therefore, selecting 195 KIAS reflects a sound understanding of safe operating practices in turbulence.
