It was a Monty Python joke. A real swallow could not carry coconuts. However, the airspeed of an unladen swallow is 24 miles per hour.

How airspeed indicator works?
the airspeed indicator works by measuring the increase in air pressure caused by the moving aircraft

What is the difference between true airspeed and groundspeed?
Airspeed is speed with respect to the air, i.e. speed through the air. Groundspeed is speed with respect to the ground, i.e. speed over the ground. It's the vector sum of airspeed and windspeed.
what is a word for a jet speed measure?
Airspeed
Indicated airspeed compared to ground speed?
Indicated airspeed compared to ground speed are different due to the movement of air (winds) around the aircraft.
How does the airspeed of a laden swallow compare to that of an unladen swallow?
A unladen swallow is the opposite of a laden swallow.
What is the airspeed velocity of a Coconut Latin Swallow?
African or European?
What is the airspeed veloicity of a swallow?
2
What is the airspeed velocity of an African swallow?
40 kilometres per hour
What is the speed of a swallow caring a coconut?
African or European swallow?
How long would it take for an African swallow to fly to the moon?
It depends on if it is carrying a coconut or not. An unladen swallow can fly at about 10 meters per second. It is 384,400 kilometers to the moon, so it would take the swallow 1 year, 2 months, 18 days, 18 hours, 59 minutes and 46 seconds to get there. A fully laden swallow would take longer.
How airspeed indicator function?
The airspeed indicator or airspeed gauge is an instrument used in an aircraft to display the airspeed in knots
What is the airspeed of an African swallow?
7-9 wing beats per second but for it to carrya coconut from France to England it would have to beat its wings 42 times a second
What is an airspeed indicator?
An airspeed indicator is an aviation instrument which displays an aircraft's current airspeed.
What is the hypothesis of the spider silk textile fiber in the investigatory?
A laden swallow can only dive at 88 km/h
What is equivalent airspeed?
Equivalent airspeed is speed at sea level in which the incompressible dynamic pressure can be produces as if it were at true airspeed. Equivalent airspeed is used to predict aircraft handling.
When was Airspeed Aviation created?
Airspeed Aviation was created in 1986.
