1.10 load factor Flashcards
which basic flight maneuver increases the load factor on an airplane as compared to straight-and-level flight
turns
(refer to image) if an airplane weighs 3,300 pounds, what approx. weight would the airplane structure be required to support during a 30° banked turn while maintaining altitude
3,960 pounds
(Refer to the image) If an airplane weighs 2,300 pounds, What approximate weight would the airplane stress your be required to support during a 60° banked turn while maintaining altitude
4,600 pounds
(Refer to the image) If an airplane weighs 4,500 pounds, what approximate weight would the airplane should be required to support during a 45° banked turn while maintaining altitude
6,750 pounds
the amount of excess load that can be imposed on the wing of an airplane depends upon the
speed of the airplane
during an approach to a stall, an increased load factor will cause the aircraft to
stall at higher airspeed
