4. A turbofan-powered reconnaissance airplane weighs 40,000 lb and carries 30,000 lb of fuel. Assume that the flight speed of 400 knots, LD 24 and specific fuel consumption (SFC Ξ 0.57 lb/lb-hr) are constant. At a mission radius of 1800 nautical miles, how long n the airplane loiter? (Note: Radius is the distance that the airplane must fly to and rom the loiter point.)
