In aviation, thrust is the force along the axis of the aircraft which moves it through the air. Together with drag, lift and weight, it is one of the four forces required to make an aircraft fly.

What is weight and thrust?
In aviation terms, weight is the gravity pulling you down, which prevents us from floating around in the air. Also, thrust is the power the turbine, or the propeller, generates that pushes the airplane forward.
What helps an airplane overcome drag so it can thrust forward?
Aerodynamics help reduce drag so the engines can produce thrust.
What are the forces involved in airplane flight?
Thrust and drag are two important forces act on air craft.
What object makes objects float?
Buoyancy. Upthrust is not a word; however, buoyancy can be described incorrectly as an upwards thrust. More so buoyancy is a force or action. Not a thrust of any kind.
How do you use the word thrust in a sentence?
As a verb:He just thrust himself into the middle of a private conversation.As a noun:Attracting new customers is the thrust of the new advertising.The new jet engines produce a tremendous amount of thrust.
Why aviation is important?
Because aviation is central to so many parts of air defence, travel and industry
Why grooming is important for Aviation industry?

Why is it important to have accurate communications in aviation?
It is important to have accurate communication in aviation because when accidents happen, they are usually very fatal.
What is power curve?
A power curve is an important curve used in aviation. It is the curve of form and induced drag interacting with airspeed. This curve shows pilots that they must give additional thrust as speed decreases to maintain airspeed when airspeed is below a certain point.
Why is communication important in aviation?
It help controlling tower
How much thrust does a jet use for take off?
For jet engines, higher thrust requires higher hot section temperatures. And higher temperatures reduce engine life, so commercial jets usually do not use full thrust on takeoff. Instead, the needed engine pressure ratio is calculated based on weather conditions, load, and runway length. Military fighters and smaller general aviation aircraft use all they have on takeoff. Do military transports use reduced thrust on takeoff, like the C-17?
Important events in the history of aviation?
Penguins were the first to make up aviation designs and to make an airplane they are the best creatures out there
Why the wrigt brothers invention is important?
The beginning of modern aviation.
What are 4 forces of a paper airplane?
i would assume just like general aviation it would be lift (upwards) weight or gravity (downwards) thrust (forward) and drag (backwards)
What helps an airplane overcome drag so it can thrust forward?
Aerodynamics help reduce drag so the engines can produce thrust.
Is it important that the spider gear thrust washer is in the differential?
Yes, very.
