If an airplane weighs 3,300 pounds, what approximate weight would the airplane structure be required to support during a 30° banked turn while maintaining altitude?

Given:

Airplane weight = 3,300 lbs

Angle of bank   Load factors equivalent (n)

0 degrees         1.0 n

10 degrees       1.015 n

30 degrees       1.154 n

45 degrees       1.414 n

60 degrees       2.000 n

70 degrees       2.923 n

80 degrees       5.747 n

85 degrees       11.473 n

90 degrees       Infinity

Find:

Approximate weight during 30% banked turn while maintaining altitude

So, we multiply 3,300 lbs by 1.2 n (1.154 rounded off to nearest ten)

3,300 lbs * 1.2 n

= 3,960 lbs

Therefore, while maintaining altitude, the airplane structure  would be required to support 3,960 lbs of weight during a 30° banked turn.

true is the correct answer
