FAQ

What is the Equivalent Airspeed?
Equivalent Airspeed is calibrated airspeed corrected for the compressibility of air at a non-trivial Mach number. Equivalent Airspeed is usually measured using the Meter per Second for Speed. Note that the value of Equivalent Airspeed is always positive.
Can the Equivalent Airspeed be negative?
No, the Equivalent Airspeed, measured in Speed cannot be negative.
What unit is used to measure Equivalent Airspeed?
Equivalent Airspeed is usually measured using the Meter per Second[m/s] for Speed. Meter per Minute[m/s], Meter per Hour[m/s], Kilometer per Hour[m/s] are the few other units in which Equivalent Airspeed can be measured.
