How do aircraft engine manufacturers do it?
Aircraft engine manufacturers build and repair aircraft engines using automated robots and other computer-aided equipment.
What is the structure of an aileron used in aircraft?
Ailerons are at the rear of the outer wing and operate opposite of each other (one up,other down) Their purpose is to roll the aircraft around its axis.
What happends if an aircraft engine stops while flying?
In most modern aircraft the other engines will cope with one out.
What aircraft has no engines?
A Glider or sailplane. Schweitzer has a virtual monopoly on these in the Us at present, there were other makes such as Bowlus in War II and earlier.
Is the flight of aircraft made possible by engine and wings?
They are an important part of the aircraft that makes it fly. There are many other parts without which the airplane cannot fly.
What companies lead the demand for aircraft measuring and controlling devices?
The main customers of the aircraft engine instruments segment were General Electric (GE), United Technologies, Rolls Royce, and other aircraft manufacturers.
How much does it cost to build a helicopter engine?
Almost the same as the other similar aircraft engines. And depends on the size of the helicopter, consequently to the power of the engine.
What type of car engine is it when the pistons and valves will not smash into each other if the timing chain broke?
Noninterference
Why was the jet aircraft invented?
Speed, this gain along with other qualitys of an aircraft equites to military air combat supremacy. Eventually the jet engine was made for use in passenger planes.
Does an aileron operate opposite of the rudder on an aircraft?
Ailerons work opposite of each other and totally independent of the rudder. However you do have to use both to make a smooth turn.
What are the advantages of four engined aircraft over twin engine aircraft?
Historically, the four engine design was used to ensure performance and reliability. Aircraft engines back in the early years of aviation were prone to failures and mechanical trouble, and with a four engine airplane, losing 1 engine meant the aircraft retained 3/4 of its performance, versus 1/2 with a two engine design. Additionally, engine technology at the time meant that some aircraft actually required 4 engines in order to have sufficient thrust for takeoff/climb (i.e, B-747). Today, the only real advantage a four engine aircraft enjoys is performance (as mentioned above), and an increased level of redundancy. Additionally, both of the advantages are rapidly dissolving, as no current commercial transports (other than A380 and 747) employ a four engine design.
What is the acc wire?
When you insert key into ignition switch and turn it to the left you are turning on the ACC circuit. It will allow you to operate radio, windows and other accesories, but it does not turn on fuel pump and other engine controls. It saves battery power for when you need to operate vehicle components without engine being on.
