Why are Vortex Generators fitted on Tornado Aircraft?
Vortex Generators are fitted on both sides of the base of the Fin, on Tornado Aircraft, to generate a turbulence, so that the Rudder has an effect at altitude, otherwise the Rudder is flying in a vacuum, and has no effect on the stability of the aircraft, causing judder, with possible buckling of the spine to occur.
What is the purpose of dorsal fin in aircraft?
To provide stability of the aircraft during flight!
Why are tires of an aircraft made slightly conducting?
This is to disperse static electricity ween the aircraft lands. Many aircraft also have 'static wicks' which are bits of wire fitted to the trailing edge of wings.
What is inherent stability of a airplane?
Inherent stability is the quality of an aircraft that relates to its tendencies when the pilot releases the controls. Most aircraft are designed such that, if you release the controls the aircraft will naturally tend to level out and fly straight and level. These aircraft are said to be "inherently stable." High-performance aircraft such as fighter planes and aerobatic aircraft often have little or no inherent stability and when the pilot releases the controls the aircraft may bank or pitch in one direction or another. These aircraft take much more skill and concentration to fly safely, so most civilian aircraft are designed to provide a high amount of inherent stability.
What will happen to the aircraft indicating instruments if the aircraft static port is blocked?
On most (all) modern aircraft there is more than 1 static port. In case the static ports are blocked, most pitot probes also have a static pressure sensor that will sense the pressure. (Tiny hole on the top or bottom of the probe) Static ports are one of the most important parts on an aircraft which is why you will always find an auxillary port for both pilots.
Where are static and total pressure ports on an aircraft?
Total pressure of an aircraft is the pressure being meausred at the pitot tube opening. And the static ports are normally located alongside the body of the aircraft to measure the dynamic pressure. Type "static ports 777" in google images and you will know where they are!
Why does a helicopter generate static electricity?
Any aircraft moving through the air generates static electricity.
What primary aircraft structure provides directional stability?
tail
What kind of stability is needed to hold a set joint position against resisitance for an isometric muscle action?
Static Stability
What has the author James G Batterson written?
