Question

A C-130 pilot desires to fly a low-level navigation mission at 4 n miles/ min (240 kn ground speed).
Winds are forecast out of the north (blowing south) at 20 kn, the pressure altitude is 10,000 ft, and
the temperature is 80 °F. What indicated airspeed should the pilot fly on a northbound leg if the
position error is negligible?

The answer is q = 136 lb/ft2

Expert Solution

Step 1

Given Data

The ground speed is: $G_{s} = 240 kn$
The wind speed is: $W_{s} = 20 kn$
Altitude is: $h = 10, 000 ft$
The temperature is: $T = 80 ° F$

To Determine

Indicated airspeed should the pilot fly on a northbound leg if the position error is negligible
