Within this definition, there are four common ways of measuring airspeed: <strong>Indicated airspeed:<\/strong> the speed of a charter plane as shown on the aircraft\u2019s airspeed indicator. It is uncorrected for instrument, position and other errors. <strong>Calibrated airspeed:<\/strong> the speed of a charter plane that has been corrected for instrument and position errors. <strong>Equivalent airspeed:<\/strong> the speed at sea level that would produce the same incompressible dynamic pressure as the true airspeed of a jet charter flying at a given altitude. <strong>True airspeed:<\/strong> the speed of a jet charter relative to the atmosphere.<\/p>\n<h2>Travelling at the Speed of Business<\/h2>\n<p>Along with range, the airspeed (or, more appropriately, cruising speed) of a jet charter is an important consideration when choosing the right aircraft for a given charter flight. For busy corporate executives who need to keep tight schedules, having a charter plane with the speed to get them to their appointments is critical. Additionally, the speed of a jet charter becomes more pronounced the further it travels. For instance, a Gulfstream G650 charter can complete transoceanic missions much faster than many of its class competitors. This can amount to hours in time savings for ultra-long range business trips.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In private aviation, airspeed refers to the speed of a jet charter relative to its surrounding air mass.","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":59659,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1402],"tags":[978],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/61500"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=61500"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/61500\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":94147,"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/61500\/revisions\/94147"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/59659"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=61500"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=61500"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=61500"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
