Research paper
Discuss in detail:

1. Aerodynamic design parameters:
A. Aerofoil,
B. wing geometry,
C. wing-dihedral,
D. horizontal tail geometry vs. location (arm)
2. Study the force couples Lift/Weight and Drag/Thrust and calculate representative values for
a. Cruise flight at 1.000 ft and 10.000 ft MSL ISA
b. Consider a max forward and a max aft CG position and calculate the
required tail-plane force to ensure steady state flight
3. Same as question in number 2 part a. for best rate of climb and best glide angle for one common CG position

 

PRIORITIZE SOLVING THE QUESTION COMPLEX CALCULATIONS.
SHOW THE SOLUTIONS. STEP BY STEP
