The pilot determines that there is 605 gallons of fuel in the airplane's reserve tank. The airplane has already traveled 112 miles away from the airport. The pilot knows that the large aircraft must make a wide emergency maneuver to avoid system failures, yet must also make a short enough maneuver to get on the ground safely without running out of fuel. If the plane consumes 5 gallons of fuel per mile, what is the maximum diameter, to the nearest mile, of the circular maneuver the pilot can make? plane back
