Where did they put the guns on the planes in World War 2'?
for fighter planes they would have been forward facing in the front of the fuselage and/or in the wings, some planes with turrets would have also had the guns in the turret behind the cockpit. for bombers they would have had turrets around the plane, usually in these places: behind (tail turret) underside turre forward facing turret under the cockpit and above the bomb aimers possition side turrets built into the side of the fuselage neer the tale of the plane and turrets located on the top of hte plane in the middle of the fuselage.
Why don't modern commercial aircraft have viewing decks for passengers either above or below the aircraft's fuselage?
Some Luftusana do have them on their planes. I was on one last summer that had a bank of restrooms below the fuselage. It was a really cool plane.
What is a fuselage?
Answer The functions of an Aircraft fuselage include some or all of the following: Support structure for wings and tail. Structure that contains the cockpit for the pilot. Structure that allows aircaft to carry cargo, passengers, and equipment.
Where is the engine located on a single engine plane?
Most commonly on the front attached to the fuselage. However, there are many variations. On a "pusher" the engine is at the back of the fuselage. The engine can be mounted above the wing and fuselage on some seaplanes.
Where is a planes engine?
A plane's engine is typically mounted either on the wings or at the rear of the fuselage. In commercial aircraft, engines are commonly attached to the wings for optimal aerodynamics and weight distribution. In some smaller aircraft or specific designs, the engine may be located at the rear, providing a different aerodynamic benefit. The location of the engine plays a crucial role in the aircraft's performance and efficiency.
What type of wings does a high performance jet need?
Ones that won't fall off the fuselage. If you look at different high-performance jets, you'll notice that none of them have the same exact kind of wing. Some have swept wings. Some have delta wings. Some have ogival wings. But all these wings have one thing in common: they are strong enough to thrive in the performance envelope the plane operates in.
Where was the Ammunition stored in World War 2 fighter planes?
In almost all WW2 fighters the guns were in the wings, so the ammunition trays were in the wings too. Some exceptions were the Me 109 where they had guns above and around the engine so ammunition was stored right behind the engine.
How do some creatures fly above the earth?
They bat their wings.
How many landing gear does airplane have?
Most airplanes have three landing gear: a nose gear at the front and two main gears typically located under the wings or fuselage. However, larger aircraft may have additional gear for support, while some smaller planes can have just two. The configuration can vary depending on the design and purpose of the aircraft.
Why are the wings of some planes bent up at the tips?
These are called winglets. They reduce drag therefore increase lift.
Why are the engines of a plane located under the wings?
The location of jet engines on the wings of passenger aircraft is for three main reasons:The reduced noise requires less insulation for the passenger cabin.The separation of engines could reduce damage to the fuselage or the other engines in the event of a failure.The wings are the load-bearing structures, so the application of force there has certain physical advantages (and shorter fuel lines, since most are wet wings with fuel inside). However, other designs attach the engines to the rear of the plane to reduce lateral (twisting) force.Military jets have different constraints and concerns, so engines may be located inside the fuselage where practical. Some subsonic military planes do have wing-mounted engines (S-3, A-10, B-52).
Why did some early planes have movable wings?
probably because people wanted to try to find an eaiser way to fly a plane but that made it worse because the wings weren't as strong.
