The aircraft _____________ during a sustained turn.(a) cannot be slowed down(b) can be slowed down(c) can lower its velocity(d) can increase lofting process effortI had been asked this question during an interview.This interesting question is from Flight Mechanics in division Performance and Flight Mechanics of Aircraft Design

Answer»

Correct OPTION is (a) cannot be slowed down

To elaborate: In sustained turn, aircraft is not allowed to SLOW down. During sustained turn aircraft cannot be slowed down or LOSE altitude during turn. In sustained turn thrust has to be equal to the DRAG. Lift is load factor times weight.
