Depends on what CI( Cost Index) is imputed.

Can we somehow incorporate a treadmill into this question?

 

[grog_sit_reserv]

B6Bus has it though, that's the speed I remember. But then, at altitude we used Mach numbers which is a better representation.

Ahem....

"imputed"....???

What ever....You get the POINT!!

Input + Computed = Imputed

It's in all the technical manuals, I'm surprised you've never heard of it.

Depends on your pay...

I refuse to dedicate valuable keyboard cycles to a cost index explanation, but here's a good thread with some higher level deiscussion and links to Airbus material on the topic. http://www.pprune.org/tech-log/424258-cost-index.html
