The T-41 (i.e., the military version of the Cessna 172) had a "simple mechanical" flight control system using direct mechanical linkages. Direct feedback of forces acting on the control surfaces to the control stick (or yoke) provided a natural feel. The feedback was by the "seat of the pants". The trim system was a mechanical linkage connected directly to a trim control wheel in the cockpit. There is no warning in the T-41 if the trim was set incorrectly. It is the pilot’s responsibility…

Did you know parachutes come in all kinds of different shapes? The shapes vary from circles to triangles. However which one is the fastest? There are many factors that effect the speed of parachutes. Kinetic and potential, for example, influence the parachutes speed and movement. When a skydiver jumps out of an airplane gravity pulls him towards the ground and he doesn’t have enough air resistance to safety land on the ground. That’s where the parachute comes in! When the skydiver pulls the…

Chapter 1 Introduction 1.1 What is aerofoil? Aerofoil is a large stucture which is attached to the airplane. It has curved surfaces designed to give required ratio of lift and drag. It helps to create different aeodynamic forces. The force perpendicular to the motion of aeofoil is lift force. The force parallel to the motion of aerofoil is drag force. 1.2 How it works? Aerofoil consists of following components: • Suction surface • Pressure surface • Leading edge • Tailing edge •…

diagonal line). This creates lift because air blowing up to the wing bounces off, pushing the wing up. This is the reason why if you stick your hand out of the window of a fast moving car, your hand moves up, which is lift. The second reason is Bernoulli's Principle. As seen is F3, the principle says that if there is an increase in velocity (speed) on the top of the wing, there will be less pressure on the top too, lifting the wing up. For example, if you blow really hard on top of a piece of…

This essay is going to be about two articles called “The Amazing Penguin Rescue” (Lauren Tarshis) and “Saving Penguins, One Sweater At A Time” (Kristin Lewis). Did you know that little penguins are a species of penguin, so named because they can range anywhere from 10 to 12 inches tall (Kristin Lewis). When oil gets on penguins their feathers clump up, when this happens it exposes their skin and allows all the cold water and poisonous oil to get to their skin and make them cold (Lauren Tarshis…

no amount of advice or helping hands can rid, the acceptance that they are really gone, and that they are in a better place now. That feeling is exemplified in “The Hospital Blues You Gave to Me” by The Gospel Youth. The singer and songwriter Sam Little tells a story through his lyrics and makes the piece easily relatable all the while creating an upbeat jig that makes a person want to bang their head from the first drumbeat. This song reminds me of a tough period of my life and I am sure that…

. Walking in leading the two reindeer Pete said. “Here we are now what?” “These boots go on the hoof of Comet,” The wizard said, handing Pete four of the boots. “You will note they remarked for the hoof the fit.” Handing the reindeer reigns to one of the helpers, Pete takes the boots looking to see where they go. Sly and one of the elves puts the boots on Dancer while Pet and a helper fit Comet with his. Let’s let them walk around the barn to see how they will take to something being on…

As set within a larger epic, Ovid’s Metamorphoses and also mirrored in Ars Amatoria, “Icarus’” structure conveys a Roman focus on present experiences, using the flight of Icarus to support the idea of flight as a semblance of free will within the present (Ovid). As the poem takes place within an epic, structurally, it brings attention to that there is a significant amount of history both before and after it. The piece does not rhyme, with the first four lines ending in “perōsus”, “amōre”,…

Sasha, I started watching wrestling at the end of 2015. I tuned in at a great time because this was the beginning of the revolution. I remember loving Becky Lynch, but I started to like this other wrestler named Sasha Banks. She had pink hair, an awesome entrance, and some pretty amazing gear. I was gravitated towards you ever since. I cheered for you at WrestleMania 32, and you looked absolutely stunning. You put on a magnificent show that gave me this idea. I thought to myself, “I want to do…
