I could have sworn that I was seeing the TAS at the bottom of the airspeed tape but am now seeing the Mach number. Did that just recently get changed in one of the recent updates? I looked over the updates but didn't find the change mentioned anywhere. I did check the actual G1000 manual and saw that TAS is displayed on the TBM 850 while mach number is displayed on the TBM 900 in the actual aircraft. So I am assuming for accuracy the change was made. I actually found TAS more useful than Mach number, not that it is a big deal. Now I will just need to do the conversion if I want to know the TAS.

The G1000 automatically changes to mach when the aircraft goes beyond 255 knots TAS. I am not quite sure about the specific speed number but it must be something around 255 knots.
