What do pilots use to measure?
Pilots use instruments such as altimeters, airspeed indicators, and attitude indicators to measure altitude, airspeed, and aircraft orientation. These instruments help pilots navigate safely through airspace and maintain control of the aircraft during flight.
What is the transvers thrust?
Transverse thrust is a force generated by asymmetrical engine thrust during flight in aircraft. This can cause the aircraft to yaw or roll, and pilots use control surfaces to counteract this force and maintain control. Transverse thrust is most noticeable during takeoff and landing phases of flight.
What has the author Edward A Wells written?
Edward A. Wells has written: 'Design and flight test of the propulsion controlled aircraft (PCA) flight control system on the NASA F-15 test aircraft' -- subject(s): Control systems, Flight control, Airplanes, Research aircraft
What is the function of the elevator in a plane?
Elevators are flight control surfaces, usually at the rear of an aircraft, which control the aircraft's pitch
What is flight variable?
A flight variable is a parameter that can affect the performance and handling of an aircraft during flight. These variables can include factors such as airspeed, altitude, temperature, and weight of the aircraft. Pilots need to constantly monitor and adjust these variables to ensure a safe and efficient flight.
Do pilots pass out from the g force when taking off from an aircraft carrier and are the planes controlled from the aircraft carrier with radio control for the first minute or two?
During a launch, air crew members are exposed to g forces of 3 to 3.5 Gs. They do NOT black out, (actually called greying out) and the aircraft is controlled by the flight crew, not by remote control.
Why is it important to know a airplanes wind velocity?
Knowing the wind velocity of an airplane is important because it helps pilots make adjustments to their flight path and maintain control of the aircraft. Understanding the wind conditions allows pilots to make more accurate navigation decisions, conserve fuel, and ensure a smooth and safe flight.
What are flight services?
Flight services are the information and services to aircraft pilots before, during, and after flights. They are not responsible for giving instructions or clearances or providing separation.
What is in the cockpit of a plane?
Also called the flight deck, it is where the pilots fly the aircraft... don't ask where it got its name...

Why do flight attendants and pilots wear a uniform?
Flight Attendants are on board an aircraft firstly for the safety, and secondly for the comfort of all the aircraft occupants (this includes the pilots). They are a requirement of the of the FAA and other Civil Aviation Authorities and their most important function is the evacuation of the aircraft in an emergency situation.
What is the name of the tower used to guide aircraft pilots?
ATC (Airport Traffic Control Tower)
