The document discusses powerplants and aircraft performance. It states that turbo prop engine power decreases with increasing velocity, while low bypass turbofan thrust increases with rising subsonic speed. When an aircraft's velocity is zero, the thrust available is called static thrust. For an aircraft flying at a constant velocity, thrust equals drag. When there is no change in altitude, weight is balanced by thrust. The maximum lift to drag ratio for an airplane with drag polar Cd=0.018+0.15Cl^2 is 9.62.
