Hello chums...

An "At a glance" chart indicating your Air Speed in MPH, for we "Low and Slow" Multiplayer Tourers...>>>

http://www.disastercenter.com/convert.htm

It's always interesting to know how fast we are traveling in "Miles Per Hour" as a Ground Speed, compared to the Air speed in "Knots" indicated on our ASI Gauge....

...(assuming no wind...of course!....Wink...)...!

It's surprising to notice that your are probably traveling faster than you realise... Shocked...!

Paul...getting tied up in Knots... Wink...!

Fast and dangerous...that's how we GA fliers like it. Grin Grin


Well 120 in the air seems to be a good enough speed. I have never had any trouble at that speed with most props.
