Whatever shortcuts pilots may take, the fact remains that the NACO timing
tables do use GS, just as the Jepp tables do. If wind is negligible and
CAS is close to IAS, then of course IAS closely approximates GS,

Only for sea level airports. You will be off by about 20% landing at a
6000msl airport.


but it's still GS that's given in the tables.
