1

2 Airplane Flight: X-Plane in the Classroom

3 Wing Loading Ratio of the plane’s weight (w) divided by the surface area of the wing (s)

4 Wing Loading Ratio of the plane’s weight (w) divided by the surface area of the wing (s) Surface area of the wing is the wingspan (length) multiplied by the chord (width)

5 Wing Loading Ratio of the plane’s weight (w)divided by the surface area of the wing (s) Surface area of the wing is the wingspan (length)multiplied by the chord (width)

6 Wing Loading Ratio of the plane’s weight (w) divided by the surface area of the wing (s) or Wing Loading = W/S Increase Wing Loading when you increase the weight of the plane or decrease the wing area

7 Wing Loading Ratio of the plane’s weight (w) divided by the surface area of the wing (s) or Wing Loading = W/S Increase Wing Loading when you increase the weight of the plane or decrease the wing area Decrease Wing Loading when you decrease the weight of the plane or increase the wing area

8 Wing Loading Engineering Tradeoffs Takeoff and landing distance

9 Wing Loading Engineering Tradeoffs Takeoff and landing distance Stall speed

10 Wing Loading Engineering Tradeoffs Takeoff and landing distance Stall speed Flight performance

11 Wing Loading Engineering Tradeoffs Takeoff and landing distance Stall speed Flight performance Payload
