QUESTIONS AND CORRECT DETAILED ANSWERS WITH
RATIONALES |ALREADY GRADED A
What are the 3 different types of Fuselages? - ANSWER: -Truss
-Monocoque
-Semi-monocoque
Explain a Truss Fuselage - ANSWER: Typically made of steel tubing welded together,
which enables the structure to handle tension and compression loads
Explain a Monocoque Fuselage - ANSWER: Single shell fuselage which uses a stronger
skin to handle the tension and compression load
Explain a Semi-monocoque Fuselage - ANSWER: Combination of the truss and
monocoque fuselage, and is most commonly used
What part of the tail is referred to as the "empennage"? - ANSWER: Tail Assembly
Tail assembly - ANSWER: - Commonly referred to as the "empennage"
- Includes a tail cone, fixed stabilizer (horizontal & vertical) and moveable surfaces to
assist in directional control
What are the moveable surfaces of the empennage? (Axis's) - ANSWER: - Rudder
which is on vertical stabilizer
- Elevators are attached to the horizontal Stabilizers
What is the Trim System? - ANSWER: Used to counteract hydro mechanical and
aerodynamic forces acting on the aircraft
Describe Slats - ANSWER: - Slats are located on the middle to outboard portion of the
leading edge of the wing. Used to create additional lift and slower flight by extending
the shape of the wing.
- Flaps and slats are hidden inside the wing and extended during take off
Describe Spoiler - ANSWER: Located in the upper or trailing edge of the wing and are
used to decrease lift. They allow the nose of the aircraft to be pitched down without
increasing the airspeed allowing for safe landing
Describe Flaps - ANSWER: - These are the hinged portion of the wing trailing edge
between ailerons and the fuselage. Sometimes may be located on the leading edge
of wing.
- If USED during take off, flaps reduce the amount of runway and time needed to
take off.
- During LANDINGS flaps increase the drag on the wings slowing the plane down and
to go slower during landing, reducing the amount of runway needed.
, - BASICALLY, flaps allow aircraft to make more lift at slower speeds
List the Secondary Flight Controls - ANSWER: - Flaps
- Slats
- Spoilers
- Speed Brake
- Trim system
Describe the Rudder - ANSWER: Mounted on the trailing edge of the vertical fin and
is used for controlling rotation (YAW) around the vertical axis
Describe Ailerons - ANSWER: Mounted on the trailing edges of the wings and are
used for controlling aircraft roll about the longitudinal axis
- located on the outer, trailing edges of the wings,
Describe Elevators - ANSWER: Mounted on the trailing edges of horizontal stabilizers
and are used for controlling aircraft pitch about the lateral axis
List the primary Flight controls - ANSWER: - Elevators
- Ailerons
- Rudders
4 Altitudes of flying - ANSWER: - Pitch
- Bank
- Power Control
- Trim Control
Pitch Control - ANSWER: the angle formed by the lateral axis of the aircraft
Repulse - ANSWER: Verb (used with object)
- to drive back; repel
- To repel with denial; discourtesy; or the like; refuse or reject
Noun
- The act of repelling
- The fact of being repelled, as in hostile encounters
- A refusal or injection
Optimum - ANSWER: Noun (plural)
- The Best of most favorable point, degree, amount, etc, as of temperature, light,
and moisture for the growth or reproduction of an organism
- The greatest degree or best result obtained or obtainable under specific conditions
Enamor - ANSWER: Verb (used with object)
