Mach, TAS & Weight
Hello,
Looking though the cruise section of my performance manual, I found something a little unusual.
According to this data, while cruising at a constant mach, my TAS increases with weight. Either I'm forgetting something very basic here, or I'm missing something fairly important.
How does weight affect the relationship between TAS and Mach no.?
Edit: For some reason, I can't upload an image. My manual shows that at FL 370 & M.76, TAS is 437kt at 50,000lb and 432kt at 30,000lb
