On the Legs page, how are mandatory airspeed restrictions entered?

The key idea is that the Legs page expects a plain numeric speed with no extras when you’re entering a mandatory restriction. Entering just the speed value (for example, 280) signals a hard constraint that must be met on that leg, without any modifiers. A suffix would imply an alternate meaning or usage, which isn’t how this field is interpreted for mandatory restrictions. So the correct approach is to input the speed with no suffix.
