KCAS

KCAS (Knots Calibrated Airspeed) refers to the speed of an aircraft through the air, as measured by its instruments and corrected for any errors that may have occurred due to instrument or position errors. This measurement is commonly used in aviation to provide accurate and reliable information about the speed of an aircraft, which is essential for safe and efficient flying. By accounting for errors, KCAS allows pilots to make more informed decisions and take appropriate actions during flight. Ultimately, KCAS is a critical tool for ensuring the safety and reliability of air travel.
