True airspeed (TAS) can be calculated by adjusting indicated airspeed (IAS) for nonstandard pressure and temperature conditions. A common rule of thumb is to add approximately 2% of the IAS per 1,000 feet of altitude to correct for the decrease in air density with altitude. This rule helps pilots estimate the TAS without needing to perform complex calculations in real-time during flight. However, for precise calculations, the pilot should refer to the aircraft's performance charts or use a flight computer to determine the TAS more accurately.

Can be used to determine speed if distance is know?

The incorrect answer (but expected) answer is probably "time taken for the journey". Unfortunately, that is true ONLY if the distance is covered at constant speed and there is no valid reason for assuming that!


Can you get cited for going the posted speed limit?

Yes. It sounds strange but there is a rule that if the other traffic is speeding and you pose a hazzard, you can be sited for it. The rule is to go as fast as it is safe. It sounds like a bunch of #$%#$ to me but it is true.

Is it true that the state of medium heps determine the speed of sound passing through the medium?

Yes, the state of a medium, such as its temperature and density, can affect the speed of sound passing through it. In general, sound travels faster in materials that are more rigid or dense, like solids, compared to gases or liquids. The speed of sound in a medium is also influenced by factors like pressure and composition.
