List of top Aerospace Engineering Questions on Airplane Performance asked in TS PGECET

An aircraft is gliding at an altitude of \(3000\) metres with the engine failed. The aircraft has a maximum Lift-to-Drag ratio \((L/D)_{\max}\) of \(15\). Calculate the maximum horizontal distance the aircraft can cover before hitting the ground.
If an aircraft is flying at its Drag Divergence Mach Number and the pilot increases speed slightly, what happens to the fuel consumption?
An aircraft has a minimum sink rate of \(1.5\ \text{m/s}\). If it starts gliding from an altitude of \(1800\) metres, what is its maximum endurance (loiter time) in minutes?
Crosswind primarily affects
How does an increase in density altitude (lower air density) affect the take-off ground roll distance (\(S_g\))?
For a jet airplane, the maximum rate of climb occurs at the speed where
In an aircraft, what is the condition for the absolute ceiling?
Which of the following best defines Density Altitude?
Equivalent Air Speed (EAS) is
