PS: In reply to the question you put on the help desk, you may want to put a question in the discussion page of the template (Template:Aircraft specifications), or ask the creator of the template, Karl Dickman.
[edit] Re: Vmc
Hello,
{{Aircraft specifications}} is a template that uses parametres, as well as a lot of if/then statements. Essentially what it does is it has a bunch list of parametres for various aspects of the aircraft. Within the article itself, values are specified for those parametres; then, the template renders those values into the code you see.
The reason why Vmc didn't work is because it isn't one of the parametres that is supported by the template. You said that it was a very important statistic for twin-engine aircraft, and I believe you have some expertise in the subject. Consequently, I have added Vmc to the template. You can now specify it with |minimum control speed main=XXX knots and |minimum control speed alt=XXX mph, XXX km/h.
Postscript: You might be interested in joining WikiProject Aircraft.
