📋 Quick Reference

IAS (Indicated Airspeed)

What the cockpit instrument shows, uncorrected

TAS (True Airspeed)

Actual speed through the air mass

Pressure Altitude

Altitude when altimeter is set to 29.92

Density Altitude

Pressure altitude corrected for non-standard temperature

📐 Formulas

TAS ≈ IAS × (1 + altitude/50000) × √(OAT_K / ISA_K)

Mach = TAS / Speed of Sound

Speed of Sound = 38.967 × √(Temperature in Kelvin)

Pressure Altitude = Indicated Altitude + ((29.92 - Altimeter) × 1000)
