A Nautical Mile?

Tie Knot & Nautical Knot~

A knot is a knot whether it comes to the neck or it comes to measure the flying speed of an aircraft AND/OR naval ships. The knot Unit of speed measurement was originally developed by sailors who were on the sea all the time and on the way to long journeys they developed phenomenal techniques that we still use in modern world in advance ways something like 19’s fashion repeating in 21st century.

Multiple knots on rope, believed to be more than 100 that could give an estimation of how fast the ship is sailing. Back in those days flying machines were not developed yet Gigantic Ships were made that could cross seven seas using basic instruments such as compass, a map and ropes with Knots etc many other instruments that got embedded into travel whether is Marine, Airspace or Space. It is good to know about basic fundamentals of measuring speed with no instruments yet giving precise results our of proxy.

Speed is one of key factors that gets counted with units called Knot in aviation~ Knot originally came from Naval world when sailors used to measure the speed at which ship is going by counting tied knots on dropping rope and keep rolling with counting time in seconds and finally count the number of knots in 60 secs to declare the estimated speed in knots/hour. The best Drone Pilot training institutes in Punjab includes these basics to teach students about how to do things without instruments and what roles instruments play in IFR flight, join Martianis and get to know in more about pilot training.

The knot units and measurement system with Latitude of planet by our ancestor’s became so precise that it got adapted in Marine, Aviation and space industry~ The speedometer is marked with abbreviation called NM/hr and used in all communication when it refers to speed of flying machine in example of an aircraft. It takes a little while to understand Nautical mile once after starts flying and see the play in actual action on operational ramp. In simple words and counting numbers (1NM) one nautical mile is equal to 1.15 Miles or 1.85 Kms.
