The max. AFOV possible for any eyepiece focal length is given by putting in the max. TFOV due to barrel diameter (B) limit:

                tan& = B/2F    (B is about 31mm for 1.25" eyepieces,
                                        and about 50mm for 2" eyepieces)
or
                Tmax = 2 * arctan&

so that

                B/2F = (f/F) * tan&
or              Amax = 2 * arctan&

Tabular form, all entries in degrees...

                           40-45 degee ortho types. Compare to the table
values to see when a particular type "limits out" for that barrel dia. For
example, there is no use for f greater than about 25mm on 1.25" barrel wide
field eyepieces, or for greater than about 55mm on 2" barrel for a Plossl
design.
