What is a jet engine jet pipe?
Air intake and exhaust. Air comes into the intake located at the front of the aircraft and exits at the rear of the aircraft. This is such a load of crap! A jet pipe is located at the back of an engine, just after the exhaust! It is connected with a gas tight sealing ring and just before the propelling nozzle. And pipes the exhaust gasses out of the fuselage/Wing... A/C engineer.
What came before the helicopter?
The 'autogyro' came before the helicopter. This had a free running rotor ( not connected to engine ) that gave lift as the aircraft moved forward.
Why were land bases considered better than aircraft carriers?
Because they can't be sunk. Aircraft carriers were expensive and took a long time to build. The aviators who flew from them required specialized training. They were vulnerable to submarines. Dozens of submarines could be built for the cost of a single carrier. The crew of a carrier was as many men as in twenty or more sub crews. Carriers required a dozen or more ships of other types to protect them from submarines and aircraft. Carriers only have room for a limited number of aircraft. And those aircraft have to be relatively small, so they can take off and land in the few hundred feet of carrier deck - an area shorter than a football field. Because these aircraft have to be relatively small, they are limited in the amount of fuel they can hold, and in the amount of bombs and ordnance they can carry to the target. A WWII carrier aircraft could range out about 250 miles from its ship and be able to return after making its attack. All WWII carrier aircraft had to be single engine, and the heaviest could carry about one ton of bombs. A land airfield could be as big as the island. On Saipan and Tinian in the Marianas huge airfield complexes were built, each home to dozens of heavy, four engine bombers, which could carry tons of bombs two thousand miles and return. Islands do not move. In darkness or bad weather they can be found. Finding a carrier the same conditions in a vast expanse of ocean was not easy in WWII.
How fast did airplanes go in ww1?
Basically they flew between 80 and 120 miles per hour as top speeds. This varied with the design, amount of drag in the design and the engine used. As the war progressed so did the technology of the aircraft. At the on set of the war and as planes started to be used their top speeds were around 80 mph for fighters such as the Neuport 11 and Fokker Eindecker. Observer/bomber aircraft were slower due to size and payloads. At the end of the war, aircraft such as the Spad XIII and Fokekr D.VII had top speeds of around 120 mph, both were fighter aircraft with inline water cooled engines where as the Neuport 11 and Fokker Eindecker had rotorary engines with less horsepower. Drag is what holds the plane back and in WWI drag was associated with the rigging wires used to strengthen the wings.
Why did aircraft play an important role in world war 1?
World War One was the first global war in which airplanes were been used to fight each other (though not the first EVER conflict- that was in the Italo-Turkish War of 1913). The first World War aircraft were typically very delicate, single engined biplanes that were equipped with a side-mounted machine gun. The German Fokker Aircraft Company perfected a technique whereby front-mounted machine-guns could be fired between the revolutions of the aircraft's propeller- initially the Allies did not have this technology, but when a Fokker aircraft was forced to surrender after having to land in Allied territory after getting lost in fog, the technical know-how became known to the Allies, who were then able to match the Germans on their own terms. Over time during World War one, airplanes started getting bigger and faster. When planes equipped with bombs were made, that's when airplanes played a huge role. Twin and even four-engine bombers were made, including by Handley-Page in England and by Gotha in Germany- London suffered badly from air raids by Gotha's, one of which notoriously bombed a school and killed a number of children and their teachers.
What aircraft doesn't have a engine?
A glider is an aircraft that doesn't have an engine.
What do aircraft engine manufacturers do?
Aircraft engine manufacturers construct aircraft engines, and maintain the engines when faulty.
Who makes aircraft engine cowlings Aircraft maker or engine maker?
The aircraft maker constructs the cowlings.
What is the difference between aircraft flight hours and flight cycles?
Flying hours are the number of hours that an aircraft has flown (usually from engine start to engine stop). One flight cycle is one flight from take-off to landing.

What is a kind of aircraft is a glider?
It is a very light aircraft with no engine.
How much minimum engine can work for an aircraft?
It depends on the size of the aircraft and the power of the engine
What is a self propelled aircraft?
An aircraft with an engine. A non-self propelled aircraft would be a balloon or a glider.
How do aircraft engine manufacturers do it?
Aircraft engine manufacturers build and repair aircraft engines using automated robots and other computer-aided equipment.

LeBlond Aircraft Engine Corporation was created in 1928.
