You are piloting a General Aviation aircraft (e. g. Cessna 172) over the Georgia Tech campus in level flight at 3000 ft altitude. Your airspeed indicator shows that the true airspeed is 100 knots. You have trimmed the aircraft to have no sideslip and pitch angle at a 3 degree angle of attack. Your magnetic compass (which is uncorrected for magnetic variation) indicates that you are flying in the direction of local magnetic East. A local weather forecast predicted the winds to be steady at 10 knots coming exactly from the northeast direction at the time you took off. a. Using the information provided above and any additional information you may require (state what it is), determine your aircraft's north and east velocity components, Vn and ve, in knots. Starting from Tech Tower at t = 0, you continue in this direction and you are planning to fly directly over a local VOR beacon exactly 10 minutes later. However, you note that you don't pass directly over the beacon and after 10 minutes and 15 seconds have elapsed you are exactly 300 meters away from the VOR beacon in the Easterly direction.
b. Assuming the discrepancy is attributable only to wind speed, estimate the actual average wind speed components, Vwind-n and Vwind-e in knots. Use a flat Earth approximation.
c. Based on the instruments you are using, describe 3 common causes of measurement error that could affect the output of either sensor.
