Hi,

What is the normal and maximum taxi speed (in knots) for an RJ, 737, and 747
in normal operations? I'm just using those as examples, feel free to
mention any others. Also, I'm not looking for maximums or AFM limiations,
just the day-in day-out taxi speeds and the maximum that a crew would use to
get to the runway for an expedited takeoff.

At the big airports where there's lots of traffic they taxi about the
same as I do, or a really fast walk. OTOH at some of the out of the
way airports where there is no one between them and the end of the
runway I sometimes think they may push their luck a little.

However when you hear you'll be number 57 for departure, there is
little incentive to hurry

As some one else said, if it's fast enough to see on the airspeed it's
too fast.


Thanks,

Hilton
