CAS/TAS/Mach Flashcards
1
Q
Altitude Goes up - LSS
A
LSS decreases with altitude
TAS Up
——. =. Higher Mach No
LSS Down
2
Q
Isothermal Layer
A
LSS will stay constant making TAS/MACH No stay the same
3
Q
Inversions
A
TAS and Mach No switch places on graph
Constant Tas
Altitude up — Mach down/CAS down
Altitude down —— Mach Increase/CASIncrease
4
Q
Constant Mach in the climb
A
CAS reduces
AOA/CL increase
Pitch and climb angles decrease
5
Q
Constant CAS in the climb
A
CAS/AOA/CL stays constant
Pitch and climb angles reduce
