Wikipedia
Overspeed is the aircraft flight condition when the airspeed exceeds a safe limitation. This is hazardous as it may damage the flight control surfaces or airframe.
- never exceed speed
- maximum speed for stability characteristics
- maximum operating limit speed
- maximum flap extended speed
- maximum landing gear extended speed
- maximum landing gear operating speed

Overspeed is a condition in which an engine is allowed or forced to turn beyond its design limit. The consequences of running an engine too fast vary by engine type and model and depend upon several factors, chief amongst them the duration of the overspeed and by the speed attained. With some engines even a momentary overspeed can result in greatly reduced engine life or even catastrophic failure. The speed of an engine is ordinarily measured in revolutions per minute (RPM).
Usage examples of "overspeed".
Digital Air Data Computer, which recorded airspeed, altitude, and overspeed warnings .
The shortest time frame assumes maximum speed without regard to overspeed warnings, a straight-line path, and no time allowed for maneuvering or slowing to aim and crash the airplane into its target.
