Fuel Efficiency of Small Aircraft [PDF]
Journal of Aircraft, 1980 There is a basic mismatch between the amount of power installed in small propeller-driven aircraft and that required for efficient cruising, which results from climb performance requirements. It is shown in this paper that there is a way of using excess power for most efficient cruise, the resulting airspeed coming closest to the Gabrielli-von Karman ...
