What are Auxiliary fuel tanks in aircraft?

Auxiliary fuel tanks are additional fuel tanks installed on aircraft to increase their range or endurance. They are used to extend the aircraft's flight time and allow it to fly longer distances without the need for frequent refueling stops. These tanks can be mounted internally or externally on the aircraft, depending on the design and requirements.


What is the difference between the range and the endurance of an aircraft?

Range - Max distance an aircraft can fly between take off and landing for the given amount of fuel . Endurance - Maximum time an aircraft can cruise for the given amount of fuel


How much kilometers can an airplane fly?

It depends on the fuel capacity. Some airplanes can refuel during flight so conceivably, they can fly until the engines need maintenance. Current aircraft can fly up to 8,000 miles or about 14-15,000 kilometers.

Does reduction in aircraft speed reduce fuel usage?

If the aircraft's engine thrust is reduced, by reducing the power the engines generate, less fuel will be burned. This said, over the course of a journey, there will be an optimum altitude and speed for an aircraft to fly at in order to burn the least fuel. This calculation will be the result of a number of things, including how heavy the aircraft is, and how the surrounding whether will affect it.
