Configuration Option: The tape background may be either clear or gray.
Release 1.0. The major tick marks are located every 10 kts from 0 to
450; minor tick marks at the midpoint between the major tick marks, and
numbered digits every 20 kts from 0 to 440.
Release 1.1 & 1.2. For Part 23/25 fixed wing aircraft the major tick marks
at airspeed values of 10 (kts or mph) from 40 to 550 (kts or mph); minor
tick marks at the midpoint between the major tick marks, and numbered
digits every 20 (kts or mph) from 40 to 540 (kts or mph).
Release 1.1 & 1.2. For Part 27/29 rotorcraft the major tick marks at airspeed
