What is an aileron?
An aileron is a hinged part on the trailing edge of an airplane's wing, used to control lateral turns.
What do ailerons make an airplane do?
Ailerons allow the airplane to make barrels rolls. If the left aileron is down, and the right aileron is up, then the plane will do a barrel roll towards the left. If the left aileron is down, and the right aileron is down then the plane will do a barrel roll towards the right.
Where is a aileron on a airplane?
The aileron is usually on the back of the outter wing, on both wings. Moving the controller to the right, causes the right aileron to lift and the left aileron to go down, thus causing the aircraft to roll to the right. and vice versa.
What is the main control of airplane?
the option is elevator,joystick,aileron,and rudders.. Answer is Joystick
What was the term used to describe the bending of a wing that the Wright Flyer used to roll the airplane?

What does aileron mean aircraft?
Ailerons are control surfaces usually on the outside edge of the wing which move the airplane about its longitudinal axis. In other words, it affects the airplanes bank. This is accomplished by having one aileron create lift while the other creates drag.
What is a aileron?
AILERONS-Primary flight control surfaces mounted on the trailing edge of an airplane wing, near the tip. Ailerons control roll about the longitudinal axis.
If your left aileron is up and your right aileron is down you will be?
Rolling to the right
What factor has the greatest effect on magnitude on a plane-Lift or Aileron?
aileron
What effect does operating an aileron have on an aircraft?
An aileron will cause the space craft to roll
How airplanes turn?
Airplanes turn by rasing one aileron and dropping another. Normally, an airplane climbs (or pitches up) by dropping both elevators, and descents (or pitches down) by raising the elevators. In a turn, the pilot wants one wing to climb, and the other to descent (in a way). So in a turn, one aileron turns up, and another turns down, making the airplane bank. The lift in level flight is directly perpendicular to the wings, and in a bank, it still is. If the plane is tilted, the lift is also tilted, so the airplane is pulled to the side by the lift. This makes the airplane turn.
Sign convention for aileron in aircraft?
Right Aileron Down is Positive Left Aileron Up is Positive Rudder Left is Positive Elevator Down if Positive The oposites are negative, of course.
