The fluid dynamic characteristics of an airplane flying (240 mathrm{mph}) at (10,000 mathrm{ft}) are to be investigated

Question:

The fluid dynamic characteristics of an airplane flying \(240 \mathrm{mph}\) at \(10,000 \mathrm{ft}\) are to be investigated with the aid of a 1:20 scale model. If the model tests are to be performed in a wind tunnel using standard air, what is the required air velocity in the wind tunnel? Is this a realistic velocity?
