Bottom Left- World War 2 Bomber(talk about bomber’s were introduced)
Bottom Middle- UAV Predator Bottome Right- Cessna 300
Bottom Left-Cockpit of Boeing 747 in 1960 Bottom Right-Cockpit of 747 in 2009
-The picture on the right is a jet turbofan engine. It is basically the same principle as the engine on the right but just is super sized.(point to picture on right and explain)The fan is like 15 propellers working together. The inside of the engine works like this-(pointing to picture) Air comes into the engine and is compressed using fans that get smaller and smaller and then fuel is added to the air and is then ignited and then sent out the back of the engine producing thrust.
Is the angle created by the chord* of the wing and the relative wind*.
Chord:
Is the immaginary line that would be created if you drew a line from the leading edge of the wing to the trailing edge.
Relative wind:
Is the wind created by the onrushing air. For example, if you were riding a bicycle at 10mph on a calm day, the relative wind would be coming straight at you at 10mph. Ride directly against a 10mph wind at 10mph, and the relative wind would be coming straight at you at 20mph. Ride with a 10mph wind at 10mph, and there is no relative wind.
Spin:
A spin occurs when you are fully stalled, but one wing is more stalled than the other, so that wing drops faster than the "less stalled " one. The nose points almost straight down, and the ground rapidly rotates around you in a most disconcerting manner as your ultralight rushes toward it, similar to a spiral dive. (To determine wether you are in a spin or a spiral dive, look at your airspeed indicator. In a spin, you will be stalled, and hence, not gaining speed. In a spiral dive, you will be rapidly gaining speed.)
In Aviation, the outlook is really good. Because of the economy, a lot of pilots have been laid-off and are out of work but within 10 years, the airlines will start hiring again and the outlook will be really good. Currently, b/c of the economy, everyone is going into the armed forces to fly for them and other careers in that category. The reason i am going into the Air Force is because i can’t trust another student and teach at a flight school because it is pretty scary letting someone else who is just starting to fly land and take-off the plane b/c thats where the most accidents occur for students.
