Default 737-800 cruise speed
why can I only get it to mach 0.84 (actually 0.82 if you want t stable flight)? Isn't the top speed a lot higher than that? And why does the plant become unstable when I reach the 0.84 top speed? and can someone explain a bit about the engine color in the panel? thx :P

If the speed shows as 300 on 35000 ft it takes 1 hour. If it shows 300 on 200 ft. It takes 2 hours. Therefore the calculator is not relevant to this question.

Lol, If your G/S says 300 at whatever altitude yeah it will take 2 hrs,

Your original question
If I'm at FL350 doing 310 knots it shows as .9 mach. = too fast for 737-8
.9 mach translates to 595 knots
If i'm 600 NM from my destination, will I reach it in 1 hour or 2 hours? Did u put this data into the calc? What was the answer? So tell me again that the calc is not relevent to finding out what your ridgie question was

I was referring to the speed set to the autopilot. So it was a simple question for a noob like me to understand how the altitude "reacts" to speed. So my question got answered by Draco in a very simple way. So I can tell you again that "the calc is not relevent to finding out what your ridgie question was"

Well now u have it to use for future references when u wonder how long it will take at how fast

max cruise speed on 737-8 is mach .81

zibo mod is great but the lnav has a bug or i do something wrong after set the route in fmc i cant activate lnav...but sometime with the same configuration as flight before i can turn it on when im in the sky ?
