IAS, TAS and reliability of "Wonder Woman" speed

Folks,

Very interesting talk.

Some of it I understand, some of it .....

Am not a real pilot but sat in a P-51 on display at Franklin Institute right after WWII. Took a couple of rides in a Tri-Pacer as a teenager and studied for my license (not sure what they called them in the '50s) but cost of lessons was about $25, way out of reach for someone making about $3-4 a week.

So I read and learn from Rod Machado's Private Pilot Handbook.

I can dream can't I ?

I got a machine that lets me fly virtually anyplace I want and in any airplane :-)


Enough talk - I do better with pictures.

Just saved some of you guys about $45 (1990's dollars), and it talks about E6Bs and you guessed it - airspeeds


Like I said it has nothing to do with headwinds or tailwinds
