1 Contemporary Methods of Aircraft Construction and Design The construction of aircraft is a complicated process requiring precise calculation and innovative design in order to improve and maintain the structural integrity of the aircraft. Aerospace engineers must find a balance between reliability‚ strength and weight of the many components used in the fabrication of the aircraft. The design of an aircraft must take into account the magnitude of forces‚ such as lift and drag‚ acting upon the

The Importance of the Aircraft Carrier in Defense of the United States of America The aircraft carrier has been around in various forms since the First World War. Its emergence as the key denominator of naval power is legendary‚and its continuing prestige in this role is even yet spawning building programs among established and growing navies. The aircraft carrier is the largest and most complex of all warships and in most cases the most expensive. In addition to the cost of the ship itself

tragedy in Irkutsk is due only to Russian disorder: such a catastrophe could have taken place in any country and involved any aircraft. This is proved by the statistics. Hundreds of planes crash during landing or take-off claiming the lives of hundreds of passengers in many counties in Asia‚ Africa‚ Europe‚ and America. What is happening? Experts believe that today’s aircraft are designed the way that a man’s error is inevitable in an emergency situation. Obviously‚ no constructor can ackowledge the

ever ridden in an aircraft. Although air travel is one of the safest forms of transportation‚ accidents do happen with dramatic and terrifying results. The causes of these aviation accidents vary greatly depending on specific circumstances and problems that may develop during the flight process. Weather is one of the factors that can influence an aircraft accident in a number of ways. There are several weather factors that cause and contributed to aircraft accidents. An aircraft can become directly

Avionics is a term used to describe all of the electronic systems used on aircraft‚ artificial satellites and spacecraft. Avionic systems include communications‚ navigation‚ the display and management of multiple systems and the hundreds of systems that are fitted to aircraft to meet individual roles. These can be as simple as a searchlight for a police helicopter or as complicated as the tactical system for an airborne early warning platform. | | [edit]History The term avionics is
