Landing Gear System

The landing gear is located in the engine nacelle. The gear is extended and retracted via
an electrically actuated hydraulic extension system. The landing gear door doubles as a ski that
always extends, but can be lifted off of the ground when not in use. The gear has springs that aid
in extension. The skis are attached by rigid metal bars that pivot on a hinge. The hinge unlocks
when gear is in motion and locks when the gear is raised or lowered. The hinge can be moved up
the landing gear strut the keep it off of the ground when not in use.

 Airfoil Design Characteristics
We have chosen two NACA airfoil designs for this aircraft. These airfoils are performance
proven and highly common. They are found on other transport type aircraft that are utilized for
similar missions. Each airfoil has been tested in our wind tunnel simulation software and has
been proven capable of producing the proper lift, stall, and drag characteristics. Below is the data
obtained from our wind tunnel. There will be further explanations for each airfoil characteristic.
LIFT and Drag AT CRUISE

Wing Root - NACA 23018

Wing Tip - NACA 23012

 Wingspan

57 ft 9 in

With the airfoil surface area and camber detail, our airfoil produces adequate life for normal
cruise at about 180 KIAS. The angle of attack required keeps the aircraft at a normal pitch
attitude, allowing the pilots great visibility for traffic scanning.

LIFT AND DRAG NEAR STALL

 Stall speed with wing area of
Stall Clean (84 kts) Stall w/ Flaps (65)

STALL SPEED EQUATION PROOFS

The wind tunnel data also told us that in order to fulfill the stall speed required by your company,
we would have to add surface area to the common airfoil we chose. We did this by adding larger
fowler flaps to the aircraft that increase the coefficient of lift - thus we could fly slower at our
max gross weight for takeoff and landings from short fields.

Below is the mathematical proof that we needed to add and extra 37 square feet to our common
airfoil design. The top equation is for the original airfoil, the bottom equation is how we will
lower the stall speed.
