Airspeed

There are six different airspeed calculations available:

TAS Using CAS
iOS Simulator Screen shot 2012-08-11 2.07.38 PM
Calculates True Airspeed using Calibrated Airspeed (CAS). Outputs will be True Airspeed, Mach#, TOAT (True Outside Air Temperature) and ISA temperature for that altitude. The displayed Mach# is calculated using pressure altitude and standard (ISA) temperature at the altitude rather than the calculated TOAT.

TAS Using MACH#
iOS Simulator Screen shot 2012-08-11 2.08.13 PM
Calculates True Airspeed (TAS) using MACH#. Inputs are Mach# and Indicated Outside Air Temperature (IOAT). The outputs are TAS and TOAT.

CAS Using TAS
iOS Simulator Screen shot 2012-08-11 2.08.27 PM
Calculates Calibrated Airspeed. Inputs are TAS, Pressure Altitude and Temperature. Outputs are CAS and ISA for that altitude.

IAS Using MACH#
iOS Simulator Screen shot 2012-08-11 2.08.43 PM
Calculates Indicated Airspeed. Inputs are MACH# and Pressure Altitude. Outputs are Indicated AirSpeed and ISA temperature for that altitude.

EAS Using CAS
iOS Simulator Screen shot 2012-08-11 2.08.57 PM
Calculates Equivalent Airspeed. Inputs are CAS and Pressure Altitude. EAS is CAS corrected for compressibility.

MACH# Using TAS
iOS Simulator Screen shot 2012-08-11 2.09.09 PM
Calculates Mach number. Inputs are TAS and indicated outside air temperature.

MACH Crossover Altitude:
iOS Simulator Screen shot 2012-08-11 2.09.36 PM
Calculates the pressure altitude (PAlt) where indicated airspeed will equal a Mach number.
