It's safer. (Can still fly if one of the engine fails)

And it can push more weight. (2 engines can help more weight get off the ground)

What is a multi-bladed propeller?

An aircraft that has more than 2 propellor blades per engine. Multi-blade engines usually included the capablity to vary the pitch of the propellor in order to pull more air. Multi-engine aircraft are aircraft with more than 1 engine.

Which engine is the critical in c-130 aircraft?

The critical engine in a C-130 aircraft is typically considered to be the left outboard engine. In multi-engine aircraft like the C-130, the critical engine is defined as the one whose failure would most adversely affect the aircraft's performance and controllability. If the left outboard engine fails, it can lead to a significant yawing motion to the left, requiring more corrective actions from the pilot to maintain controlled flight.


How fast is a jet allowed to go?

As fast as it can. There are no speed limits in place for aircraft. However airlines limits speed for economic reasons. Also the way the engine is designed affects speed. The faster the engine is going, the hotter the engine will be. The turbines get the worst of this heat and if it gets to hot the turbine will fail. And the economic reason being the faster the aircraft, the more fuel you need. The Concorde was a supersonic aircraft. How ever it burned way to much fuel and that proved way to costly to operate the craft.


What is a twin engine airplane?

A twin engine airplane is an airplane which has two engines for the purposes of redundancy and/or performance. Twin engine aircraft are considerably more complex to fly than single engine aircraft, and so the FAA requires a special multi-engine endorsement in order to operate them.

What are new architecture for power equipment?

Aircraft require power for a variety of functions such as electric power for avionics, cabin air supply and conditioning, deicing, and for flight usage and landing gear. On most aircraft these functions are supplied by a variety of propulsion engine–derived sources including electrical generators, pneumatic engine, and hydraulic pumps. They are all around the engine. There are significant opportunities to improve aircraft fuel burn by more tightly integrating these now distinct aircraft systems. New architectures for these future integrated systems could consider energy storage, load leveling, power utilization or elimination, higher use of voltage, thermal management, safety Integrated propulsion and power engine include more electric or all-electric power equipment that use little or no engine leakage. These power systems require significant changes to aircraft systems compared to the more typical approaches that utilize significant engine Leakage for heating, cooling, and environmental equipment in the aircraft. There are significant opportunities to improve aircraft fuel burn by more tightly integrating these now distinct aircraft and engine power systems.
