it is a compartment that holds things in an airplane.
The luggage compartment on a plane is typically located underneath the passenger cabin, in the belly of the aircraft.
The term 'cockpit' refers to the compartment in a vehicle provided for the driver or pilot to control its operation. Such a compartment can be in a racecar, aircraft or even a spacecraft.
No: neve,r You have to put in in a suitcase and declare it before it goes in the luggage compartment. NEVER try to take it into the passenger compartment of the aircraft.
There is a danger of it exploding due to the low pressure environment.
To fit into the bomb bay compartment of the aircraft.
Except in special aircraft, the hold of an aircraft is usually not pressurized, and the pressure is the same as the atmospheric pressure outside the aircraft The passenger compartment, as I recall, is usually pressurized to about 6 to 8 thousand feet.
When considering cargo for selection on a specific airframe, you should consult the aircraft's Weight and Balance Manual, Aircraft Flight Manual, and any specific cargo loading procedures provided by the aircraft manufacturer. These publications will provide you with important information on weight limitations, cargo compartment configurations, and loading restrictions specific to the aircraft.
Yes & Yes. Most aircraft send heated air into the main deck cabin and then passes through slots in the floor down into the lower cargo decks. It is common to carry pets and live animals in the lower cargo decks. Cargo aircraft, such as those flown by FedEx, carry flowers and live animals such as cattle. For special live cargo such as race horses, they will install compartment stalls and a seat for the trainer(with a portable oxygen bottle) so he can keep the animals calm.
In an Airbus A320-A370 it is called a cargo copartment but in the A380 it is called a cargo deck. Cargo compartment usually refers to the lower belly compartments. IF the aircraft is a Freighter, then the main deck is usually referred to as the Main Cargo Deck. Not sure if that applies to Airbus.
The baggage in the hold refers to the luggage and cargo stored in the lower compartment of the aircraft. This baggage adds weight to the plane, which affects its balance and stability during flight. Proper distribution of baggage is crucial to maintain the aircraft's center of gravity within safe limits, ensuring a smooth and safe flight.
Aluminum for one thing...it's mainly what the plane is comprised of...aircraft aluminum piping and aircraft aluminum sheeting...there's also plastics and steel that comprise the cabin compartment and the engine, along with rubber for the tires and glass for the windows, not to mention the chemicals the airplane uses...
The compartment for a pilot, often referred to as the cockpit, is the area at the front of an aircraft where the pilot and co-pilot operate the controls and instruments necessary for flying. It is equipped with various controls, displays, and navigation systems that allow pilots to monitor and manage the aircraft's flight. The cockpit is designed for optimal visibility and accessibility, ensuring pilots can respond quickly to changing conditions during flight. Additionally, it is often equipped with safety features and communication systems for coordinating with air traffic control.
