Results obtained from NASA V-G and VGH (velocity-gust indicated pressure altitude) recorders installed on commercial turbine-powered transports have shown that exceedances of placard speeds appear to have been significantly reduced since placard speeds have been redefined and changes made in aural warning; oscillatory accelerations and unusual events, such as large or rapid departures from planned flight profile, occur less frequently; landing-impact accelerations are higher for turbine transports than for piston transports and vary with operator.
