What type of planes crash the most?
Planes seldom crash more than once.
How many planes takeoff each day?
Is The Plane Takeoff Cause I Want To Go To Mexico!
How many engines in one airplane?
You have to have at least one. (If you don't have an engine, your are classified as a glider.) The largest planes typically run 4 or 6 jet engines. Most planes have 1,2,3,4 or 6 engines. Very large aircraft sometimes have more. There are propeller planes, turbo prop and jet engines. There are also VTOL Vertical TakeOff and Landing planes, such as the Harrier and Osprey
What percentage of planes crash?
Only about 0.000001% of planes ever crash. Generally, the drive down to the airport is much more dangerous than flying a plane.
Do pilots change the shape of the wing during takeoff and landing to move more air over the top of the wings or to even out the flow of air on both sides of the wings?
Movable wings are there in war planes to reduce the landing/take off run of the aircraft. in certain aircraft boundary layer control system is used.
How is an anemometer used in airports?
An anemometer is a device used to measure wind speed. Together with a weather vane, the airport can report the wind speed and direction to incoming planes to assist in preparing for landing. As planes almost always take off and land into the wind to improve lift at low ground speeds, the airport will typically specify the takeoff and landing direction to incoming planes and, if they have runways with more than one compass orientation, which set of runways to use.
Why do planes land somewhat pressurized?
Because the fuselage will be more rigid and better absorb landing stresses
Do any warships have landing pads for planes?
Yes google Aircraft Carrier if you won't to find out more.
What were the 2 planes that crash into the twin towers?
It did happen 2 planes crashed into the towers everyone on the plane died but not more than 1300 survived in the tower
How many planes where involved in 9-11?
over all i think there were 4 planes involved: * 2of which crshed into the twin towers * 1 tried to crash into the penigon * 1 more tried to crash into a white house but missed and crashed into a field instead.
How does a flaps work?
Flaps are adjustable surfaces on the wings of an aircraft that increase lift during takeoff and landing. When deployed, they change the wing's shape and increase its camber, allowing the wing to generate more lift at lower speeds. This enables the aircraft to fly safely at slower speeds, which is crucial for landing and takeoff. Additionally, flaps can increase drag, helping to slow down the aircraft when needed.
What is tail dragging?
Tail dragging refers to a situation in aviation where the tail of an aircraft contacts the ground during takeoff or landing, often due to improper angle of attack or a hard landing. This can lead to structural damage to the aircraft, particularly to the tail section. In some contexts, tail dragging can also describe a specific type of aircraft design that features a tailwheel, which is more common in older or smaller planes. Proper technique and awareness are essential to avoid tail dragging incidents.
