Question2 The mission profile for a jet driven aircraft consists of the following segments: engine start and warm-up, taxi, take-off, climb to the cruise altitude of 35000 ft, descend to 10000 ft, one hour loiter at this altitude at 60% of the cruise speed, flight at loiter speed and altitude to an alternate airport (100 nm), descend to landing approach condition followed by the final landing, taxi and shutdown. The cruise Mach number is 0.8. No provisions are made for the reserved fuel or any trapped oil and fuel. The aircraft carries 200 people (including pilots and the cabin crew) at 175 lb each and 90 lb baggage each. This aircraft has a wing area of 2000 ft² a) If the landing stall speed of the aircraft is set at 100 kts corresponding to a landing weight of 0.85 Wro, and C(Lmax) Landing = 2.50, determine take-off weight and then calculate the range and empty weight of this aircraft (see Table Q2). Consider landing at sea level on a standard day.
