Chapter 5, Problem 5.4P

The Piper Cherokee (a light, single-engine general aviation aircraft) has a wing area of 170 ft 2 and a wing span of 32 ft. Its maximum gross weight is 2450 lb. The wing uses an NACA 65-415 airfoil, which has a lift slope of 0.1033 degree 1 and α L = 0 = 3 ° . Assumer τ = 0.12 . If the airplane is cruising at 120 mi/h at standard sea level at its maximum gross weight and is in straight-and-level flight, calculate the geometric angle of attack of the wing.
