Air Speed

Postby Greg AS#147 » 31 Dec 2013 12:48

I have noticed that my air speed is not matching. My AAS has a different air speed then my flight sim does. I was just wondering if anyone else is having the same problem. For example, currently on my sim I have an air speed of 540 knots, but the program says my air speed is 456 knots. It is however recording the same altitude and correct time for the flight.

Greg-

Just a thought...myAAS2 displays true airspeed while FS (via the ctrl-z display) displays indicated airspeed. Possibly what you are seeing?

I was thinking the same thing Joe! Now I am really curious, don't have much time tonight to fire up FS and check though.

No, that is not it. I have true airspeed and speed in knots while on FS and it still doesn't match what My AAS2 is displaying. The only time it is the same is at 0...lol. Not a big deal, just something I noticed.
