Indicated airspeed
Indicated airspeed (IAS) is the
airspeed
read directly from the
airspeed indicator
on an aircraft, driven by the
pitot-static system
. IAS is directly related to
calibrated airspeed
(CAS), but includes instrument errors and
position error
.An aircraft's indicated airspeed in knots is typically abbreviated KIAS for "
Knots
-Indicated Air Speed" (vs. KCAS for
calibrated airspeed
and KTAS for
true airspeed
).
