Question 1 - Range of Boeing 777 300ER (15 Points): Boeing 777 300ER is a fuel efficient long range aircraft that is currently being operated by a large number of airline companies. In this question you are asked to run calculations on the range of this aircraft. The following is some useful data: Maximum Takeoff Mass: 351,000 kg Maximum Payload Mass: 68,500 kg Operating Empty Mass: 169,000 kg (Aircraft weight with no fuel and no payload) Design Flight Altitude: 12 km Thrust Specific Fuel Consumption (GE-90 Engine): 155 106 N/N-s (cruise at design altitude) Wing Area: 436.8 m Wing Span: 64.8 m Zero Lift Drag Coefficient (CDO): 0.013 Spanwise Efficiency Factor (e): 0.72 Lift Slope: 0.091 1/degrees Zero Lift Angle of Attack: -2.8 degrees TURKISH AIRLINES a) Estimate the maximum range for Boeing 777 300ER with maximum payload mass. Ignore the segments (takeoff, climb, descent etc...) of the flight other than cruise.
