Solution Steps

Step 1: Calculate Usual Speed

The usual speed of the plane can be calculated using the formula: \[ \text{Usual Speed} = \frac{\text{Usual Distance}}{\text{Time}} = \frac{3952 \text{ km}}{3 \text{ h}} = 1317.\overline{3} \text{ km/h} \]

Step 2: Calculate Distance in Cloudy Skies

The distance the plane can fly in cloudy skies is given by: \[ \text{Cloudy Distance} = \text{Usual Distance} - \text{Distance Reduction} = 3952 \text{ km} - 184 \text{ km} = 3768 \text{ km} \]

Step 3: Calculate Speed in Cloudy Skies

The speed of the plane in cloudy skies can be calculated as: \[ \text{Cloudy Speed} = \frac{\text{Cloudy Distance}}{\text{Time}} = \frac{3768 \text{ km}}{3 \text{ h}} = 1256 \text{ km/h} \]

Final Answer

\(\boxed{1256 \text{ km/h}}\)
