The installed net propulsive force is defined as ______

A)
installed lift by drag
B)
installer wing loading
C)
uninstalled thrust plus drag due to inlet and nozzle
D)
installed engine thrust minus the drag due to inlet, nozzle and throttle dependent trim drag

Correct Answer :   installed engine thrust minus the drag due to inlet, nozzle and throttle dependent trim drag


Explanation : The installed net propulsive force is defined as installed engine thrust minus the drag due to inlet, nozzle and throttle dependent trim drag. This thrust value can be used to determine aircrew performance. Wing loading is defined as the ratio of weight of the aircraft to the reference area.
