From current EASA definitions: Indicated airspeed means the speed of an aircraft as shown on its pitot static airspeed indicator calibrated to reflect standard atmosphere adiabatic compressible flow at sea level uncorrected for airspeed system errors. Calibrated airspeed (CAS) is indicated airspeed corrected for instrument errors, position error (due to incorrect pressure at the static port) and installation errors. According the POH Skyhawk C172P-1982 on Page 5-9 airspeed calibration shows a large difference between KIAS and KCAS at lower speeds than 90 and above. It seems this is not reflected by JSBSim or FlightGear in a realistic way. So use this numbers and create a table which corrects the output shown on the ASI. --> <property>/instrumentation/airspeed-indicator/indicated-speed-kt</property> <channel name="indicated airspeed"> <fcs_function name="systems/asi/indicated-airspeed"> <output>velocities/vias-kts</output> <function> <table> <!-- The indicated-speed-kt property reacts to pitot failure, but it assumes the pitot is perfect.
