Hmm….I guess if you want to go old fashioned you can use it on a whiz wheel wind side along with w/v to work out drift, hdg true, ground speed etc.??

Quick question from ATPL theory student type: Flying larger aircraft do you get a TAS reading (from the ADC?) as well as IAS, or do you just fly on IAS through the climb until you use Mach meter at a certain altitude/speed? What factors do you use to determine at which altitude/speed to switch from using airspeed in kts to mach.
Cheers..
