General Airspeed Terminology and Symbols
•
CAS
Calibrated Airspeed:
the indicated speed of an aircraft corrected for position
and instrument error. Calibrated airspeed is equal to true airspeed in
standard atmosphere at sea level.
•
KCAS:
Calibrated Airspeed expressed in knots.
•
IAS
Indicated Airspeed:
the speed of an aircraft as shown on the airspeed
indicator. IAS values in this manual assume zero instrument error.
•
KIAS
Indicated Airspeed expressed in knots.
•
TAS
True Air Speed:
the airspeed of an aircraft relative to the undisturbed air
through which it passes.
•
T.O.S.S
Take-Off Safety Speed:
the airspeed chosen to ensure that adequate control
will exist under all conditions, including turbulence and sudden and complete
engine failure during the climb after take-off. It is the speed required at 50
feet.
•
V
A
Manoeuvring Speed:
the maximum speed at which application of full
available aerodynamic control will not damage or overstress the aircraft.
