Consider a typical air flow around a cruising jetliner at 10km altitude. The speed is now 810 km/h, while the ambient conditions are 0.414 kg/m³ , 0.261 atm and -50°C. At the stagnation point, the temperature rises over by 25°C, while the density and pressure changes by more than 30% and 45 % respectively. Classify the following situations as compressible/incompressible flow
