Converting Mach Number to True Airspeed To convert Mach Number to True Airspeed (or vice versa), rotate the inner dial until you see the Mach No. Index inside the airspeed correction window on the inner dial. Line up the true or outside air temperature (do not use Indicated Air Temperature) opposite this Mach No. Index. Mach Number on the inner scale reads opposite True Airspeed (in nautical miles per hour) on the outer scale. In Figure 14, at an outside air temperature of +15°C and Mach 1 (10 on the inner scale), read 661 knots on the outer scale. Figure 14 20
True Altitude When the air is colder than standard your altimeter can mislead you into thinking you are higher than you actually are. Determine true altitude by the following steps: 1. Determine pressure altitude by setting 29.92 momentarily on the altimeter. 2. Set pressure altitude next to outside air temperature in the altitude correction window. 3. Subtract station altitude from indicated/calibrated altitude to determine calibrated altitude AGL. 4. Find calibrated altitude AGL on the middle scale and read the correction to station altitude on the outer scale. 5. Add the correction to station altitude to get true altitude MSL. Figure 15 21
