Laika007 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 When landing the F-18, taxi and coming to a complete stop, the speed on the left side of the HUD shows 48 or other speeds. How do I adjust the speed in the HUD to be accurate when taxiing, at a stop/no forward movement? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoomie36 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 You only see IAS on the HUD, but if you look at the HSI you will see ground speed or TAS ( I think). Is there a reason you need to see Ground speed? When taxiing you can generally see from visual cues if your too fast. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laika007 Posted August 14, 2021 Author Share Posted August 14, 2021 No reason to see ground speed, was just wondering why it was not showing in the HUD. I will check the HSI. Thanks! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IvanK Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Minimum IAS value that can be displayed in the HUD is 48kts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenson Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 I recalled that Viper can show taxi speed on DED, but don't think Hornet has such thing.

Bunny Clark Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 To be specific, 48 knts is the lowest speed the pitot-static system in the aircraft is able to accurately read airspeed. TAS and GS are both driven by the INS/GPS system, so they will read lower speeds. Oil In The Water Hornet Campaign.
