Simple rule of thumb conversion of knots to miles - 1.2 mph per knot.

Or multiply knots x 1.15 for mph.

LancairDriver is more accurate using 1.15 multiplier. 1.2 over states.

Great Chart

OR...

For us LFBs, rule of thumb.

1 knot equals 1 and 1/8 MPH

So for simple field use, for every 8 knots add 1 and you have the MPH.

32 knots then equals 36 MPH.

Close enough!
