@Griffon1 yes

@DragoransEscarti eww metric system

@Griffon1 TAS is good, but have you ever heard of...

Kph?

@Formula350 hell yea

lol
#TASMasterRace
amirite, @Griffon1? :P

I use Mph with TAS because it is the True Airspeed

@Formula350 yeah that's all true

@Kangy
bc that's the only way aviation does it

That is, until you start to fly REALLY high, at which point you enter into another industry, all of which uses Metric... Even NASA. lol
I'm 'Murican though, so it's MPH, Feet, and degrees Farfignugen. I have noticed that Knots are preeeetty close to MPH, thanks to the Gauges, but it's a large enough discrepancy up around 240MPH that it's around 220Knots; not so bad really.

@ReturnOfJeffChandler Mmm You could start here maybe?? lol
But hard to trust the info there, because of how incorrect that top value provided is. That was only true (IMO at least) until the very early 2000s, before someone thew a hissyfit over the fact the fries were cooked in the same grease as some meat (and had some beef fat too I think, for flavor). For crying out loud, if you're going to an unhealthy-as-hell place such as McD's, your opinion on how they make their fries should be completely invalid! hahaha But nope, had to ruin it for the rest of us... *sobs*

IAS in Km/h bc I know no other measurements
I'm trying to get my head around knots and feet tho bc that's the only way aviation does it (except a few places)

Uh hmmm I need a chart @Formula350

Uh hmmm I need a chart @Formula350

@ReturnOfJeffChandler But... what's the conversion rate of that so I can get it in Bananas?????/

I use GS to fly things measured in fries per burgers

i use TAS

For tanks or truck I use GS and MPH, for aircrafts I use KTS and TAS

Nautical system because of flight manuals and IAS, since it's the most useful and relevant speed aside from Mach number.

*laughes in nautical system
TAS ofc. Beacause IAS ingame in higher altitude is.... unrealistic.

@Noname918181 Speed Mesurement type, not unit

GS is with the actual speed alone,
TAS is the actual speed but can be affected by wind, IAS isn't the actual speed but can also be affected by wind, however, IAS is used in irl aircraft and such.

(According with the fact I use the metric system)

@Formula350 no, weather just changes the atmosphere and visibility. Wind settings are a different thing

@meteorbook345 Presumably, even with the Weather set to Dynamic, it doesn't add any Wind, does it?
I've never noticed it producing any, even when it changes the weather to "Stormy". Which if that's true, that's unfortunate, as it seems like a missed opportunity :(

@Formula350 yeah, TAS and GS are always the same unless I’m using wind and IAS and TAS are different when I’m flying at high altitude

@meteorbook345 No no, I get that, my question isn't about what they pertain to and how they're calculated.
I'm curious if anyone has actually witnessed in Simple Planes, the GS and TAS providing different values, because they always display the same speed for me. *shrug*
.
In other words, I'm trying to figure out if that's a bug (which if so, would've been present in v1.10, as well as the current v1.11).

I use Nautical for units (NMi, ft, knots), and I use TAS for readings.
nautical because I always liked the sound of Nautical miles (I watched too much GS videos) and TAS because I wanted to have true speed readings when going into the air. So I know what to do.

@Formula350 so basically, GS is your speed relative to the ground. TAS is your speed relative to the air around you (it can be affected by wind), but isn’t adjusted for atmospheric density or altitude. IAS adjusts for altitude and density as well as wind, so it gives you a more accurate reading on whether or not you're going to stall if you’re landing at a higher altitude
