  3. Induction of aircraft • Flying machine • a machine (such as an airplane or a helicopter) that flies through the air • supported either by its own lightness or by the action of the air against its surfaces • keep in the sky by moving air over their wings. • Examples are aeroplanes, helicopters, and gliders.

  4. Does an aircraft have a key? • short answer to this is: no • An aircraft isn’t locked with a key • it certainly doesn’t need a key to start it up. • The pilots simply push a button.

  5. How is an aircraft weighed? • Weighing takes place in seven steps: • Pling!- Once every four years, an aircraft’s diary says it’s time for a weighing session. • An appointment is made with the Weight & Balance team in the hangar. • The aircraft is emptied completely. The kerosene is drained right down to the last drop. Then the drinking water and toilet water are removed. • The Ground Engineers prepare the aircraft for weighing and make sure it really is empty and dry (rainwater can distort the measurement by adding extra weight).

  6. How is an aircraft weighed? (Contt..) • The Weight & Balance engineer uses a checklist to ensure that all of the required contents have been removed. • The aircraft is weighed. • The weight is filed.

  7. How is an aircraft painted? • In layers – primer, base coat and top coat. • But first all the old paint is stripped off the aircraft in a process lasting 24 hours. • Once all the old paint has been removed, the three new layers are applied. • Each layer takes six hours to dry.

  8. How are stickers applied to an aircraft? • Aircraft aren’t only painted, they are also decorated with stickers. • This process is quite an art. • First off, a technical drawing is made. • The stickers are made of a special material that can withstand temperatures ranging from -50°c to 110°c. • An extra layer of varnish is sprayed over the edges of the sticker.

  9. Does an aircraft have a horn? • An aircraft does have a hooter. • It’s incredibly noisy. • When ground engineers are working in the cockpit, they can use it to alert their colleagues working on the ground. • There’s a tiny button marked “GND” on the instrument panel in the cockpit.  • The button is hard to find, but when pressed it sounds as if three steamboats are passing under the plane.

  10. How do aircraft get their names? • One of the few airlines that names its aircraft • Choose a specific theme for a specific aircraft type, and the names have to be easy to pronounce.
