Agreed. Also 1 Knot is a bit faster than 1 mph.KillerAFET wrote:
Nope, aviation speed in measured in Knots. I'm an engineer and my discipline is aircraft instrumentaiton for the B-1Bomber. We measure speed, as all military aircraft do because it is standardized, in KIAS or Knots Indicated Aircraft Speed. Of course this is a game so it may indicate speed in Cheetos per hour but in the real world it is knots. We measure fuel in pounds, not gallons by the way.<{SoE}>Agamemnar wrote:
The speed on your jet is in kilometers. The instruments on an aircraft must be precise, and the metric system is the standard in that department. If you notice the Mig29 and J-10 have the same speeds as their american counterparts... and those manufacturers never use imperial.
I'm basing this on the fact that I've seen videos of 1500 miles and you are definately not going that fast in game. 1000 kms looks more like it.
