Thrust – It’s all about altitude Airplane Flight: X-Plane in the Classroom
Thrust – It’s all about altitude • Topics • Thrust • Landing
Thrust – It’s all about altitude • Four Forces Of Flight • Weight • Lift • Drag • Thrust
Thrust – It’s all about altitude • Thrust as a force • Thrust overcomes drag
Thrust – It’s all about altitude • Thrust as a force • Thrust overcomes drag • Thrust determines the altitude of the airplane
Thrust – It’s all about altitude • Thrust as a force • Landing
Thrust – It’s all about altitude • Thrust as a force • Landing • Reduce thrust by reducing throttle to 1800 rpm
Thrust – It’s all about altitude • Thrust as a force • Landing • Reduce thrust by reducing throttle (1800 rpm) • Keep wings level
Thrust – It’s all about altitude • Thrust as a force • Landing • Reduce thrust by reducing throttle (1800 rpm) • Keep wings level • PAPI • Precision Approach Path Indicator
Thrust – It’s all about altitude • Thrust as a force • Landing • Reduce thrust by reducing throttle (1800 rpm) • Keep wings level • PAPI • Precision Approach Path Indicator • All white - too high
Thrust – It’s all about altitude • Thrust as a force • Landing • Reduce thrust by reducing throttle (1800 rpm) • Keep wings level • PAPI • Precision Approach Path Indicator • All white - too high • All red - too low
Thrust – It’s all about altitude • Thrust as a force • Landing • Reduce thrust by reducing throttle (1800 rpm) • Keep wings level • PAPI • Precision Approach Path Indicator • All white - too high • All red - too low • Half white and half red – on target
Thrust – It’s all about altitude • Thrust as a force • Landing • Reduce thrust by reducing throttle (1800 rpm) • Keep wings level • PAPI • Practice
