I just googled EAS. So are you referring to the sports nutrition product, Energy Action Scotland, Employment Agency Standards, the European Athletes Society, European Astronomical Society, or are you just throwing in an acronym for the sake of it?
![]() The graph in the book is a simple demonstration of relative turning circles. It's not scientific. It's very 'layperson', but not necessarily 'wrong' per se. I'd say the altitude is a typo. The x and y axes obviously show the same parameter, i.e. radius of turning circle in feet. But I have the book, so I'll check if it's clarified in the text. |

EAS is equivalent air speed, Crumpp will be along in a minute to teach you all about it....

![]() However, I checked the text and there is no clarification as to the methods of calculation re the turning circle. It's a simple example for the readers of a book who don't have PhDs in aerodynamics. Or even a GCSE come to that. But this doesn't make it 'wrong' per se. |

![]() It does just mean sea level. You would have to understand that True Airspeed at Sea level equals EAS..... ![]()

It is cut and dry and requires no interpretation. You are just plain wrong. That is why anyone would assume you don't know that True Airspeed equals Equivilent Airspeed at sea level. If you did know, then you are just lying about it in your above reply. The performance is radius of turn in EAS.
