  14. Questions / Comments

  15. THIS DAY IN AVIATION • August 26 • 1922 — Lt. Brackpapa flies a course 4 times at 336.468 mph in a Fiat biplane powered by a 700-hp Fiat engine.

  16. THIS DAY IN AVIATION • August 26 • 1925 — In a record that would stand until Feb. 24, 1983, Farman Parker of Anderson, Indiana becomes the world's youngest pilot to fly solo. • Born on January 9, 1912, he flies at the age of 13 years, 7 months, 17 days.

  17. THIS DAY IN AVIATION • August 26 • 1929 — The first flight of the largest trimotor transport aircraft built by Fokker, the F.IX, takes to the air on its first flight. • The prototype (PH-AGA) was handed over to KLM on May 8, 1930, and given the name “Adelaar” (Eagle).

  18. THIS DAY IN AVIATION • August 26 • 1949 — $29,192,000 contract awarded to Pratt & Whitney by Navy for R-4360-53 “Wasp Major” engines.

  19. THIS DAY IN AVIATION • August 26 • 1949 — Air Force awards Sikorsky Aircraft a $1 million contract for five H-19A helicopters.

  20. THIS DAY IN AVIATION • August 26 • 1954 — The Bell X-1A rocket aircraft reached a record official altitude of 90,443 feet.

  21. THIS DAY IN AVIATION • August 26 • 1959 — French flyer Jacqueline Auriol, piloting the “Mirage III,” becomes the first woman to attain the speed of Mach 2.

  22. THIS DAY IN AVIATION • August 26 • 1959 — President Eisenhower replaces his airplane with a jet, a USAF VC-137A, which is a modified Boeing 707 jet-airliner. • The switch allows the President to cut his travel time in half.

  23. Aircraft in Motion

  24. Today’s Mission Requirements • Mission: • Identify the flight control surfaces of an aircraft. • Describe the effects of the flight control surfaces on aircraft flight. • EQ: Describe aircraft components, their function and how the axes of rotation, forces of flight, and flight controls surfaces contribute to understanding flight.

  25. Aircraft in Flight

  26. The Axes of Flight • The axes of flight are: • Longitudinal (Roll) • Axis from tip of nose to tip of tail – ROLL • Lateral (Pitch) • Axis from one wingtip to other wingtip – PITCH • Vertical (Yaw) • Axis vertically through meeting point of the longitudinal and lateral axes. – YAW

  27. Flight Controls • Wilbur and Orville gave us sustained, controlled, powered heavier than air flight

  28. Flight Control Surfaces

  29. Ailerons • Are hinged, horizontal surfaces attached to the back (trailing edge), outer edges of the wings of the plane. • Used to turn the plane. (ROLL) – Longitudinal Axis • As one aileron rises, the opposite aileron lowers, raising one wing and lowering the other, tilting (or banking) the plane toward the lower aileron.

  30. Elevators • Are hinged, horizontal surfaces attached to the trailing edge of the horizontal stabilizer. • Control the plane’s movement upward or downward. (PITCH) – Lateral Axis • When the elevators are raised, the tail is forced downward, the wings are forced upward, and the plane climbs.

  31. Rudder • A hinged, vertical surface attached to the trailing edge of the vertical stabilizer (tail of the plane). • Helps the plane enter and recover from turns by swinging the tail to the left or right. (YAW) – Vertical Axis
