Fixed-wing aircraft

the future I would love to be flying all over the world in many types of aircraft except not as a passenger but as the pilot. My dream is to one day get a pilot's license. whether its a private license or commercial license…

fast in last century. From aircrafts to drones. There are many interesting aircraft types and different usage of air vehicles. Especially some war technologies develop very well like war aircrafts.In todays conditions of war and military necessitate very devoloped aircrafts like F22 and B2. Under this circumstances wars are very hard. With today technologies aircrafts makes unbelievable things. Especially F22 Raptor and B2 aircrafts are the most devoloped war aircrafts in the world. Their…

The Invention of Airplane Wilbur and Orville Wright were the first American inventors to invent the airplane. On Dec. 17, 1903, the Wright brothers achieved the first powered, sustained and controlled airplane flight; they surpassed their own milestone two years later when they built, and flew the first fully practical airplane. The Wright brothers showed the world that man could fly (“Wright Brothers”). Their invention of the airplane astounded everyone; poor people, rich people, and especially…

Wilbur Wright- also known as the Wright Brothers, were most famous for the invention of the gas-powered aircraft. In History, they have become the inventors of the first successful airplane. This also earned them the honor of being first in flight. Although there were creators of airplanes before them, the other inventors didn’t create them with the same ideas. They invented different types of aircraft, trying to perfect them. A good question to ask is, did these brothers know their invention…

The Flight 214 Did you know the chance of you dying in an airplane crash is one in an eleven million (Haltiwanger, “The Odds Of A Plane Crash Are One In 11 Million, Yet You’re Still Afraid”)? Sometimes accidents are inevitable and sometimes they are not. All it takes is a simple error for any accident to occur. Over the years most of the airplanes accident were mostly caused by the human factors. In aviation industry, the most common there are twelve most common human factors which are known as…

Antibiotics The Internet What isn't there to say about the internet. Thanks to the internet you can now know any piece of information in the world by the click of a button. I can't name a single day I don't use the internet and I doubt anybody could that has access to it. The automobile The Airplane Before the airplane traveling across the oceans is something that would take months. Now you can hop in an airplane and be at the other side of the world in a day. Airplanes are also great because…

inspections are all listed in 14CFR Part 43. Each A&P mechanic may come up with their own checklist on the items required for that inspection, but they must still contain everything listed by the rule book. For the sake of making money however the aircraft may be flown an additional 10 hours to the location where the inspections will be accomplished but the 10 hours must be subtracted from the next 100 hours. The Airframe and Powerplant mechanic may perform the inspection…

siblings like a steam engine made out of old sewing machine parts. He even built a mini cannon out of a 12-calibre gun. Joesph would always take apart his dads car motor so his dad kind of gave in and bought him a motor that he thought could not be fixed. Little did his dad know…

“No flying machine will ever fly from New York to Paris…[because] no known motor can run at the requisite speed for four days without stopping.” -Orville Wright One thing that I found interesting about this quote is the fact that it came in 1909, which was about 6 years after the Wright Brothers’ original flights, which were considered very successful at that time. I think Orville Wright said this because he falsely assumed that airplanes would never go faster than they did at that time. Of…

fuel efficient, and fastest aircraft possible. The Douglas DC-3 is widely known as the plane that changed the world, and this aircraft has always stood out among others. The DC-3, first flown in 1935, was a low-wing twin-engine monoplane that was the world’s first successful commercial airliner, readily adaptable for military use. Over 64 feet long, with a wingspan of 95 feet, the aircraft could seat up to 28 passengers and could carry over 6,000 pounds of cargo. The aircraft is a representative…
