Aircraft Parameters: 1. 2. - - - - 3,200 lb aircraft weight during cruise Engine produces 260 HP at Sea Level 125 HP is required to fly level at 7,000 feet and 150 kt What is the estimated climb rate in ft/minute at 150 kt at 7,000 ft? (80%) Use basic physics and what has been discussed so far 1 HP 33,000 ft-lb/minute = Show all of your work Clearly identify your assumptions Show your analysis process What is the climb angle in degrees? (20%) Bonus (up to 20%): What is the climb rate if the engine is turbocharged and can maintain Sea Level rated power at 7,000 feet? The turbocharged aircraft weighs 90 lb more (3,290 lb).
