Özet
An exact solution of the maximum range, and a highly accurate approximate solution of the maximum endurance, are proposed for cruising flight of the piston-powered aircraft installed with a constant-speed propeller and cambered wing. It is proven that the constant-altitude/constant-speed cruise range can be independently optimized, even for the aircraft with cambered wing, without substitution of the optimum speed of other flight regimes.
