Consider a flying wing aircraft made using a NACA 2418 airfoil with a wing area of 22 m²,
wing span of 15 m, and a span efficiency factor of 0.85. The aircraft is flying at 4° angle of
attack and a Reynolds number of around 6 x 106 at an altitude of 2000 m.
a) What are C₁ and CD for the flying wing?
b) If the aircraft is flying at V = 85 m/s, how much lift and drag is it experiencing?
c) What is the lift to drag ratio of the aircraft?
d) If the aircraft has a takeoff weight of 7500 kg and flying at the indicated angle of attack,
what should be its flight speed if the compressibility effect is neglected?
