Once upon a time many many years ago I actually did the conversion with

Anyway, I'll let it rest, but I was trying to make the point that FlyNET isn't asking for a Mach Number, it's asking for a speed in Knots. If we need to convert it, fine, but a Mach Number is useless to me for the purposes of FlyNET.
