I have seen speeds that vary, when I am at say FL350 from 240 knots to 310 knots. Cruise speed depends also on the head-/tailwind component, but for descents it should only be affected by CI. Does the descent speed go up and down in-sync with cruise or only if you change CI? ECON Cruise speed should be adjusted if headwind or CI changes, descent speed only if CI changes. Otherwise iFly has implemented it wrongly.
