Just to put a certain myth to bed

Post by DispatchDragon »

Folks

I just audited a weeks worth of flight plans from LAS-LAN using
MD80 equipment - they are planned at the same flt level ie FL310
and at the same mach (0.76) and everyone of them has a different
TAS - varying anywhere from 5 - 10 knots depending on ISA. So I
guess TAS isnt a constant after all - but......Mach is :wink:

I'd like to shake the hand of the clever person who put 'S' in lisp
