How much turbulence can airplanes handle?
Airplanes can handle more turbulence than you can ever imagin. They can handle up to more than 2,000 times of turbulence before their wings can snap off into pieces. Airplanes are over-built with extremely thick and strong illuminum skin and titanium skin. They are also made out of very thick and strong steel making it almost impossible for turbulence to break airplanes into pieces so you are very safe to fly on-board airplanes! Airplanes are over-built with more than 5 layers of thick and strong illuminum skin, titanium skin and steel!
Why do airplanes use supercomputers?
Airplanes not necessarily use supercomputers but, supercomputers are used to design airplanes. One of the many uses of supercomputers is to model how wind and turbulence affect an airplane. Supercomputers are also used in advanced flight simulators.
What are the advantages of a high altitude flight?
One advantage is that there is usually less turbulence at higher altitudes. I think because you are flying higher than those "pockets" of turbulence that you experience at lower altitudes.
Why do airplanes wait after another plane has taken-off?
They wait to allow the wake turbulence from the first aircraft to dissipate. Wake turbulence from heavy jets and those with unique wing designs (such as the B-757) can be extreme and cause other aircraft to lose control. Larger aircraft that might not be affected by the preceding aircraft's wake turbulence can waive or reduce the time required before taking off.
Do airplanes have any friction?
Yes. Airplanes experience drag from the air when in flight and friction from the ground when they are taxiing. There is also friction between parts in the plane.
Why do airplanes fly in the troposphere?
Aircraft fly in the troposphere because the stratosphere is where the clouds are. Here all the weather fronts take place. So, to avoid major turbulence, aircraft fly here.
What do a modern airplane have that one of first airplane didnt?
The Wright Brothers airplanes were made of wood and cloth. Modern airplanes have metal fuselages (which means that its a closed object, unlike older planes). Modern airplanes are pressurized, which means you can breath at high altitudes. Newer airplanes can carry much more passengers and has much more range. Most new airplanes have either turboprop, turbofan, or turbojet engines, which are much more fuel efficient, less noisy, and more reliable, whereas older airplanes used piston airplanes. They also have more sophisticated technology, such as fly by wire, turbulence avoidance, etc.
Why cant planes fly when theres a thunderstorm?
airplanes cannot fly because of the turbulence created in the air which in turn causes variable pressures that is the lift here is not uniform, also the vulnerability of the plane and hence....
How do you put turbulence in a sentence?
Planes are built to resist turbulence.
When was Turbulence Records created?
Turbulence Records was created in 2005.
When was Turbulence released?
Turbulence was released on 01/10/1997.
When was Turbulence - song - created?
Turbulence - song - was created in 2010.
