| Jun 23, 2019 at 15:53 | comment | added | Peter Kämpf | @ymb1: TAS goes up with the square root of the density ratio (1.225 at SL, 0.46 at 30 kft), and I took the 220 KIAS as the baseline (220 x 1.63 = 359). The c$_L \cdot Ma^2$ of 0.4 is my experience for a regular, mildly supercritical airfoil; with a given Mach number of 0.63 the lift coefficient must be 1.0 for the product to become 0.4. Not a silly question at all; I'm grateful for you checking my answers. | |

(Apologies if it's a silly question, I tried to google some of the terms before asking for clarification.) | |
