I randomly set 30 kn as maximum speed and 10 kn as minimum speed. I don't see a reason why you couldn't set, say, 1 kn as minimum.

I don't think so, considering that defining one of plane's machine gun barrels as left wing in Goblin does absolutely nothing to its ability to stay in the air.

EDIT: From what I see, it seems to be very simple: engine power and mass affect speed, so does turning and damage. If speed falls below stall speed ("minimum speed"), plane falls. If hitpoints drop to zero, it explodes and falls.
