  1. AVIATION By Daniel Velare

  2. Airplanes • An Airplane Consist of five major parts • WING • POWERPLANT • LANDING GEAR • FUSELAGE • EMPENAGE

  3. Wing • All airplanes come equipped with ailerons and flaps, which are attached to the wings • AILERONS extend from the midpoint of each wing to the outward tip, which move in opposite directions • This allows for the plane to maneuver right and left • FLAPS extend from the midpoint of each wing to the edge of the fuselage, which extend at multiple degrees • Allow for an increase in lift for takeoffs and landings http://blog.sciencegeekgirl.com/2008/04/18/myth-5-how-do-airplanes-fly/ More about how Wings Work

  4. Powerplant • The powerplant includes both the engine and the propeller, which are mounted on the front of the aircraft • The primary function of the ENGINE is to provide power to turn the propeller • Like a vehicle, is the main component of an aircraft • The PROPELLER, is what acts as a forward-acting force called thrust. • This helps move the airplane through air, as well as on ground

  5. Landing Gear • Landing gear is an important feature which allows for the plane to make a safe landing, consisting of 3 wheels • There are two main wheels positioned underneath the fuselage • One wheel positioned at the front of the aircraft, called the nosewheel Tricycle Gear vs. Tail Dragger

  6. Fuselage • The fuselage houses the cabin/cockpit wich contains seats for the pilots and anyone on board. • Inside the Fuselage you can find the controls and instruments.

  7. Empenage • The empennage consist of the VERTICAL STABILIZER and HORIZONTAL STABILIZER • The vertical stabilizer helps maintain a steady route through use of the rudder (attached to the vertical stabilizer) • The horizontal stabilizer helps control elevation through use of the elevator (attached to the horizontal stabilizer) READ MORE
