The standard rate turn, or Rate One Turn (ROT), is used in airport holding patterns so that controllers can anticipate where the airplane will be after instructions are given. Sensors on an airplane flying in a standard rate turn reveal the following body-axis angular rates: p 0, q = 0.6 deg/s, and r = -2.9 deg/s and Euler angles: phi - -11 deg, theta - 0, and psi = 0. What is the turn rate (rate of change of heading angle) of the airplane? a. -3.0 deg/min c. -180.0 deg/min o. 3.0 deg/min d. 180.0 deg/min
