Hi,
i have question about J variation cruising speed. U.S. Airforce web say:

cruising speed  350 kts  
economical cruising speed  340 kts  
cruising altitude  28,000 ft  
service ceiling  30,500 ft  

But i fly in FL280 and my speed never exceed 260kts IAS. Plane is empty, 30% fuel, no wind. What i make wrong?
