term "MIAS"
I know KIAS, KTAS, KCAS, MPH but what is MIAS?
I encountered it on some older Piper Arrow checklist.

3rd paragraph down.
However, Fate always wins. (Unless the Lady is playing *). I dragged the plane from its hangar, got it fuelled, preflighted and got ready to go. Lee Simmons, my primary instructor, is instructing me again for complex, so we strapped in and rolled out to runway 31 at SPX. Lined up and ready, Lee warned me that I needed to pay careful attention to the right rudder as the 200 hp engine had plenty of torque, so I expected to have to keep Musketeer-like rudder inputs. This worked out good. We rolled, and the airspeed came off the peg. 65 MIAS (this aircraft is marked in mph) is time to rotate, so I rotated, and the plane broke ground shortly after this.

So, thats MPH as marked on the airspeed indicator. MPH (IAS).
I did some conversions after I posted and the numbers worked out exactly going from MIAS (MPH) and KIAS and vice versa. Thanks for the research RadarMan! Now I can retype the checklist and update it to read KIAS etc.
