Abbas Ibn Firnas (810-887 A.D.), a Muslim inventor, engineer, aviator lived in Cordoba, Spain, is known for an early attempt at aviation by making the first attempt at heavier-than-air flight in aviation history. The first person in aviation history to make the first air takeoff, using the glider which he invented.

He has been commemorated on stamps from Libya, by a statue near the Baghdad International Airport, and by a namesake airport north of Baghdad. The crater Ibn Firnas on the Moon is named in his honor.

Why do windows have to be open during takeoff?

Windows have to be open during takeoff to equalize the air pressure inside and outside the aircraft, which helps maintain structural integrity and passenger comfort.


What is the difference of takeoff climb out speed and takeoff safety speed for helicopter?

Takeoff climb out speed is the speed for twin engine climb out and will get performance of best rate of climb and also it is known as (vbroc) but takeoff safety speed is the speed at which the helicopter may safely air born with one engine inoperatied and also it is known as (v2)


Why are runways longer for takeoff and landing at high altitude airports such as those in Denver and Mexico city?

Higher elevations result in thinner air. Thinner air results in less lift being produced by the wings as well as less thrust being produced by the engines. Thus a longer takeoff roll will be required.


Why is it necessary for windows to be open during takeoff?

It is necessary for windows to be open during takeoff to equalize the air pressure inside and outside the aircraft, which helps maintain the structural integrity of the plane.

How do you determine the takeoff speed?

The takeoff speed of an aircraft is calculated based on factors such as aircraft weight, air density, aircraft configuration, and runway length. Pilots refer to the aircraft's performance charts or manuals to determine the specific takeoff speed required for a given situation. Aerospace engineers also use computational methods and simulations to calculate takeoff speeds during aircraft design and testing.
