Speeds Flashcards
1
Q
Vg
A
Max speed for gust prevention
2
Q
IAS vs TAS
A
Indicated - read of ASI
TAS - higher than IAS as you climb. Approx 2% per 1000’ . Due to the drop in pressure. Less molecules less air
GS- TAS with wind component added
CAS - corrected for instrument and positioning errors . Position of the tubes!
EAS - equivalent airspeed corrected for compressibility
ICET
Below 200kts and below 10,000 CAS = EAS
Mach takes into account Compressibility
