Definition # Knots (Airspeed) Airspeed is measured in knots: 1 knot = 1 nm per hour So: 500 knots = 500 nautical miles per hour nm → km: multiply by ~1.85 nm → miles: multiply by ~1.15 # nm = nautical mile A nautical mile is a distance unit used in aviation navigation, and, it's not the regular mile you use on roads. 1 nautical mile (nm) = 1.852 km≈ 1.15 miles eg. “fly up to 4,300 nm”. It means the aircraft can fly about: ~7,964 km, or ~4,950 miles
