On all the posts reporting speeds, it is very important to note if the speed is IAS or TAS as the difference is tremendous. (Can be 25%)
Ground speed or GPS speed is of no purpose for comparisons.

I would argue that even indicated airspeeds can vary greatly due to air density, and the only comparisons that would make sense are true airspeeds. Maybe that's whay they call it TRUE airspeed? :P
