Question: A jet aircraft is cruising at 12000ft. What will be the cruise leg (mission phase 'n') weight fraction?

Options

A : Wn/Wn-1 = e^{\left(-\frac{R*C}{V*\frac{L}{D}}\right)}

B : Wn/Wn+1 = e^{\left(-\frac{R*C}{V*\frac{L}{D}}\right)}

C : Wn/Wn-2 = e^{\left(-\frac{R*C}{V*\frac{L}{D}}\right)}

D : Wn/Wn-1 = e^{\left(-\frac{R*C}{V*\frac{L}{D}}\right)}
