Step-by-Step: How to Use the E6B for Time and Speed Calculations Calculating Time en Route Lets say were flying at a constant airspeed of 100 knots. That means itll take 24 minutes to fly 40 miles at 100 knots. That means our groundspeed was 90 knots. Calculating True Airspeed Follow steps 1-3 from the section above.

Postaccident examination of the engine revealed no evidence of mechanical malfunction or failure that would have precluded normal operation, however, the weather conditions at the time of the accident were conducive to the formation of serious carburetor icing at idle power. The weather conditions cleared about an hour after the accident.

Aircraft contain all kinds of wonderous indicators and instruments to measure velocity, altitude, weather conditions, etc. However, the single most important aircraft instrument is probably the airspeed indicator. A plane’s specific stall speed depends on the plane’s size, dimensions, and even weather conditions.
