There are auto landing systems where the plane can get to the ground following a laser flight plath - Taking off is much simpler of the two as a plane whose airframe is set to take off needs just the speed, direct and it will climb when the yoke is pulled back
A computer called an autopilot can land and fly aircraft.The pilot does the taxiing and the takeoff
a little
Yes it can, it's known as a Cat III approach If you are still confused about this. Watch Dnthenumber10's tutorials.
YES! ANY modern airliner can land on autopilot as long as the airport has a ILS (instrument Landing System) The pilot/s would tune in the ILS frequency to NAV 1 module and then engage autopilot and select the APP or APR button, this will keep the plane on the connrect glideslope and flightpaff. all the pilotsb have to do is adjust power acordingly and operate the flaps
Example from a pilot speaking inside a plane: This is American Airways 3953 we are ready for take off over.
The Space Shuttle refers to NASA's particular space plane, whereas a space plane encompasses all aircraft which takeoff from Earth's surface into space and then land on return.
a computer controlled gyroscope, or a series of accelerometers.
A VTOL (Vertical Take Off and Landing) aircraft is one that can takeoff and land like a helicopter, but fly like a plane. A good example is the V-22 Osprey.
a jet plane at a takeoff at 100 yards is 120 dB loud
No. The F-35 which looks similar can takeoff and land vertically.
no the pilots just put their plane on autopilot and go to sleep
Answers vary. There is a discussion of the naming of the autopilot here.
