Aircraft Manuevers

Image
Manuevers is nothing but changing the direction of an aircraft using control surfaces ..i.e.. Pitch ,roll, yaw movement of aircraft  1. Roll 2. pitch 3. Yaw Lets know the movements of an aircraft deeply 1- ROLL    This manuever is done by the deflecting the alierons in the the opposite side . if right aileron is up and left aileron is down then aircraft will roll the right side. If the left aileron is up and the right aileron is down then aircraft will roll left side. 2 - YAW   This manuever is done by using the rudder . when observing the aircraft from the backside , if rudder deflected to right side then aircraft change the yaw movement towards the right.  if rudder deflected to left  side then aircraft change the yaw movement towards the left.  3- PITCH  This manuever is done by using elevator. This manuever is used change the pitch (altitude) of an aircraft. When the elevator deflected up side t...

How do aeroplanes fly?

We often see aircrafts flying. Have you ever thought how aircrafts fly? If you're trying to understand how planes fly, First we have to understand the basic forces acting on an aircraft. If the lift generated by an aircraft is more than the gravitational pull of earth (weight), the aircraft lifts up in air. If the thrust produced is more than drag, the aircraft moves forward in air. How lift is generated?     Lift is generated due to pressure difference on the top and bottom side of an aerofoil.   When the aircraft is on the ground equal amount of air molecules strike the top and bottom surface and therefore no lift is produced. But when aircraft is in motion the airfoil is deployed at some angle. More air molecules strike on bottom surface than before and less air molecules on the top surface creating pressure difference. High pressure below the airfoil and low pressure on top of the airfoil and the pressure always travels from high pressure areas to low pressure areas c...
