Hi everyone! I found a great pdf document from Boeing giving approach speeds for Boeing aircraft including the 787 and 747-8-it also includes approach speeds for most,if not all Douglas and McDonnell-Douglas aircraft and comes from Boeing's website. It also gives MTOW,MLW,Wingspan length and max tail height for all these aircraft- I think this is a great tool to be used for Boeing and MDD aircraft and maybe stop at least me guestimating my approach speed! Link is:
