80 Tons Cargo Aircraft Design Analysis

1. The document outlines the design of an aviation cargo aircraft that can carry 80 tons of cargo. It includes estimations of crew weight, cargo weight, and mission profile. 2. The mission profile includes 8 stages: engine warm up, taxiing, takeoff, climb, cruise, descent, loiter, and landing. 3. Calculations are shown to estimate the fuel weight fraction at each stage of flight and the overall average fuel weight fraction of 0.1356. 4. Based on a graph, the estimated empty weight fraction is 0.4. Further calculations determine the basic operating weight to be 1,72,846 kg.
