% Computes takeoff velocity.
Type TakeoffVelocity for a demo.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Form:
vLO = TakeoffVelocity( m, cLMax, s, f, rho )
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
Inputs
------
m (1,1) Mass (kg)
cLMax (1,1) Maximum Lift coefficient
s (1,1) Reference area (m^2)
f (1,1) Factor of safety on stall velocity
rho (1,1) Atmospheric density (kg/m^3)
-------
Outputs
-------
vLO (1,:) Liftoff velocity (m/s)
