Machmeter

Flight instrument

A Machmeter is an aircraft pitot-static system flight instrument that shows the ratio of the true airspeed to the speed of sound, a dimensionless quantity

True airspeed

Speed of an aircraft relative to the air mass through which it is flying

air temperature. In simple aircraft, without an air data computer or machmeter, true airspeed can be calculated as a function of calibrated airspeed
