Equivalent Airspeed Calculator

Convert between EAS, CAS, and TAS with compressibility corrections.

Airspeed Definitions

  • CAS: IAS corrected for instrument and position error
  • EAS: CAS corrected for compressibility (adiabatic flow)
  • TAS: EAS corrected for density altitude (actual speed through air)

Key Relationships

EAS to TAS:

TAS = EAS / sqrt(sigma)

CAS to EAS:

EAS = CAS x f(M, delta)

f = compressibility correction factor
