Question

In Python, I want to create a program that calculates the amount of time and fuel for a Cessna to fly a given distance.

Specifications:

-Assumes that the Cessna can fly 120 nautical miles (knots) per hour

-Assumes that the Cessna burns 8.4 gallons of gas per hour

-For safety, adds a half hour to the flight time when calculating the amount of fuel required

-Rounds the amount of fuel required to one decimal place. Always rounds up, never down

-Assumes that the user will enter valid data

                                        Sample Output Display:

Aircraft Fuel Calculator

Distance in nautical miles:  180
Flight time:  1 hour and 30 minute(s)
Required fuel:  16.8 gallons

Continue? (y/n):  y

Distance in nautical miles:  121
Flight time:  1 hour(s) and 0 minute(s)
Required fuel: 12.7 gallons

Continue? (y/n):  n

Bye!
