Getting your speed with a stop watch.
Would anyone like to have the FAI 100 meter timing distance to calculate you airspeed? FAI rules state the timing must be done over a 100 meter straight course (328.2 feet)
If you have a buddy with a very accurate thumb, plus an instant "on" flashlight, or better yet a strobe flash with a dump button, you can get a pretty accurate speed in MPH with an athletic stop watch.
This is the average speed over the course and not just a peak speed using GPS or the speed recorded for an instant such as a radar speed gun.
It pretty long to type out the numbers, but if there are some who would like to have an accurate table to work from, I can pound them out sometime and post it.
