How strong are aircraft wings?
very strong, they can hold up to 8 tonnes on each wing (look at the airbus A380). they are so strong because they are made up of hundreds of components inside the wing.
What is an integral fuel tank?
It is a fuel tank formed by part of an aircraft's structure rather than a dedicated separate tank. The most common example is the wing of all modern airliners where part of the wing is sealed and by itself forms the fuel tank; in other words there is no separate tank inside the wing. Light aircraft generally use a separate tank inside the aircraft--such and arrangement is not known as an integral fuel tank.

What is a Fixed Wing Airplane?
A fixed-wing aircraft is an aircraft which has wings that are attached to the aircraft and do not move. The term is used to differentiate airplanes from other types of flying vehicles such as lifting-body aircraft (balloons and blimps) or rotary aircraft such as helicopters and auto gyros. All airplanes are considered fixed-wing aircraft and even swing-wing or otherwise moving-wing airplanes are usually referred to as being in the fixed-wing category of aircraft.
The effect of positive or negative 'g' on autorotation in fixwed wing aircraft?
AUTOROTATION is only for Rotary Wing aircraft...not fixed wing
Who were the the pilots on US aircraft shot down in Desert Storm?
Approximately 37 US fixed-wing aircraft and 23 rotor-wing aircraft were lost during DS. Approximately 15 of those fixed-wing aircraft & 18 of the rotor-wing aircraft were lost to operational causes (accidents).
What part banks a airplane?
Ailerons are hinged control surfaces attached to the trailing edge of the wing of a fixed-wing aircraft. The ailerons are used to control the aircraft in roll. The two ailerons are typically interconnected so that one goes down when the other goes up: the downgoing aileron increases the lift on its wing while the upgoing aileron reduces the lift on the other wing, producing a rolling moment about the aircraft's longitudinal axis. The word aileron is French for "little wing."The ailerons are control via the control column inside an aircraft's cockpit. If the control column is turned right, for example, then the right wing aileron will move upwards and the right wing will move downwards and the left wing aileron will move downwards and the left wing will lift, and the aircraft will roll right.On the tail of a fixed wing aircraft, the rudder is also used to conter-act the unwanted yaw, and is controlled by the foot pedals inside the cockpit. When the aircraft is rolled right using the ailerons, the rudder is turned right to help the aircraft begin its turn.The parts that help to bank the airplane are called the ailerons (on the wing next to the 'flaps') and the rudder (on the tail under the 'elevators').Read more: What_part_banks_the_airplane
Where is the wing to Fuselage attachment for Beech 1900D Aircraft?
The wing spar on this aircraft is one solid assembly tip to wing tip so it is an integral part of the fuselage. This aircraft is not the usual kingair wingbolt bathtub fitting holding the wing on.
What is the definition of a sweptback wing?
An aircraft wing that is angled back.
Can a plane fly with one wing?
>No it cannot fly with one wing. UNLESS the aircraft's body actually produces sufficient lift, such as a "flying wing" aircraft
How many American aircraft were lost in Vietnam War?
Approximately 2,000 fixed wing aircraft were lost; approximately 5,000 rotary-wing aircraft were lost.
What are the dimensional tolerances on an aircraft wing main spar?
For which aircraft? Every aircraft is different.
