The last number is airport height in feet above sea level. I might suggest you buy Jeppesen's  THE PILOT'S FREE FLIGHT ATLAS from absolutezero.com. There are maps, airport id's,nav aids etc for real flight and it is a great 'planner' usa and european versions are separate books.

Hi AE,

The number you are after is the aircraft's (in this case the PAI B752 AAL) cruising speed.

This obviously will vary depending on the aircraft you add.

Cheers,

Carl out.....

P.S. I hope someone can help you with removing traffic from a certain area. ;)
