What is the name of an aircraft engine in which a turbine drives a propeller?
turboprop
What is a Cherokee aircraft?
The "Cherokee" is a model of Piper Aircraft. It is a single engine, propeller driven, low wing aircraft.
How a propeller engine runs an airplane?
A propeller is a wing. When the engine rotates the propeller, the curved surfaces of the propeller develop lift just as the main wing does. Since the "lift" is in a forward direction instead of upward, the aircraft is pulled forward. Surprisingly, the outer 1/3 of the propeller provides almost all of the lift pulling the aircraft.
What does a propeller do on a turboprop airplane engine?
The propeller on a turboprop airplane engine spins to move the aircraft through the air. It acts in a way similar to that of the blade in a fan.
What is a turbo prop aircraft?
A turbo prop is basically a jet engine with a propeller.
How propellar on light aircraft make move?
The engine turns the propeller around.
How did Charles Lindbergh fly over the Atlantic?

What is The largest single engine propeller aircraft?
The largest single engine propeller driven aircraft is the Grumman AF-2S Guardian, a sub chaser of the Korean War era. It grossed at 25,500 lbs and was powered by a Pratt & Whitney R2800 engine of 2400 horsepower. It also had the largest Wing span for a single engine reciprocating aircraft at 60' 8".
What is the power source in the form of a propeller on an aircraft?
Power sources for propeller driven aircraft are usually either a gas turbine or a piston cylinder engine. There are other, obscure types, usually variations of a internal combustion engine, or an electric motor like in the Helios
How airplanes work?
Fixed wing aircraft work by using a kind of propeller or engine to pull the aircraft forward and the wings produce lift.
How many RPM does an airplane need?
It depends on the type and weight of aircraft, power of engine and type of propeller.
How is a propulsion system used to move an aircraft?
A piston engine turns a propeller or a jet engine turns turbines to give the aircraft forward movement and create lift around the wings.
