An aircraft of \( 90 \) t on a wing of \( 120 \) m\( ^2 \) has a wing loading of

  • A.14,700 N/m^2
  • B.7360 N/m^2
  • C.750 N/m^2
  • D.3680 N/m^2

Answer: B

Converting to force, \( 90\,000 \times 9.81 = 883 \) kN, and dividing by the area gives \( 883\,000/120 = 7360 \) N/m\( ^2 \). Wing loading is among the first numbers chosen in conceptual design, since it drives field length and cruise efficiency in opposite directions.
