It means flying by computer and servo system control rather than using cables to make changes in the rudder, aelorons, etc.

Meaning of aircraft radio failure?

An aircraft have avionics computers and equipment and radios that help the pilot fly the aircraft. A "failure" of a system or one of the computers means there was something that went wrong with the computer or in this case the radio. Sometimes there is an internal failure within the box caused by a problem with a computer chip or a short in a wire or a failure of a power source.Most passenger aircraft have 2 or more radios for communications. Aircraft may also have 2 or more radios that are used for navigation by receiving signals.In modern aircraft, the avionics computers have a trouble-shooting diagnostics. If the computer detects a problem, it will send or display a warning to the pilot in the form of a simple message displayed on his Monitor. This message is called a "Fault". The computer records a code number of this fault, called a "fault code", that will allow the ground maintenance personel to know what could be the source of the problem.

When does a fighter aircraft have maximum speed?

Like all aircraft, a fighter would have maximum speed at full throttle in a dive. In reality however, this seldom occurs. In many aircraft this puts extreme stress on the frame which is not desirable, and also running the engine at full throttle stresses the turbines and expends a LOT of fuel. In many fighter jets I have dealt with, we actually had a thin wire locked across the throttle quadrant so the pilot could only use 90-95 % of it's potential normally. - However he could push the lever to break the wire if needed.

Will robots be able to fly?

In a sense, modern commercial aircraft and many military fighter aircraft are already flying robotic devices. Built in computer controls fly many of the airplanes that are in the air at this moment, it's called "fly by wire". Some of the fighter aircraft are so difficult to keep in the air, the only way to actually perform that task without tiring out the pilot is to have the computer manage the control surfaces while the pilot only appears to fly the airplane. As for commercial aircraft, auto-pilot is certainly a robotic function.

How Does The Airbus A320 Fly?

The A320 flies using the state of the art FLY-BY-WIRE Technology. The A320 is the pioneer of this technology. Basically you just enter the Speed, Heading, Altitude, and Coordinates in the Flight Computer. And the plane will just fly automatically. The A320 also uses joystick controls along with the Airbus aircraft. (Except the A300)
