In this article, we’re going to compare indicated airspeed with true airspeed and help you get a deeper understanding of the difference between the two. Like its partner in crime, the altimeter, your airspeed indicator gives you vital information about the plane you’re flying.

These include lift, propeller thrust, and engine combustion. This means that if you encounter these conditions on a particular day, you would need to achieve a higher true airspeed to produce the same lift that would be generated at lower airspeeds in denser air. Air density is fundamental in aviation.

For example, some aircraft limit flaps and gear in icing until on approach or forbid the use of speed brakes or require a minimum thrust setting. Particular attention to true airspeed vs. turn radius.

TAT probe data is used for calculating Mach number and true airspeed which are critical for cruise flight and navigation. Engine thrust setting values and auto throttles require data from the TAT probe. 767 TAT probe as viewed out the captain’s side window Why is the TAT probe aspirated?

The rest is just lift, drag, thrust, weather, and navigation. What is your range and true airspeed? Of course, he had spent several hours in the Everglades waiting to be rescued from the alligators, so I was sympathetic. The decision to make this type of tripwhere there is significant overwater flyingis the single hardest step.
