Not being much of a math or engineering whiz, can anyone help me calculate the force the relative wind would put on a device that hangs in the breeze on my airplane?  Assuming a 200 MPH airspeed, and a flat plate of 15 sq. inches, what would be the amount of force on the plate in pounds?  

Best Regards,

Steve
