Accelerate Go Distance : The distance required to accelerate to V1 with all engines at takeoff power, experience an engine failure at V1 and continue the takeoff on the remaining engine(s).
Accelerated Flight Programs - Do They Work? Dear Mr. Machado: I'm having trouble finding a good instrument instructor for my instrument training.
accelerate - stop distance- calculated distance required for an aircraft to accelerate to V1 (which see), reject take-off and brake safely to a halt. ACMS - aircraft condition monitoring system. ACR - aerodrome control radar.
Accelerate-go distance. The distance required to accelerate to V1, and continue the takeoff on the remaining engine(s). The runway required includes the distance required to climb to 35 feet by which time V2 speed must be attained.
ACCELERATED STALL - Any stall made to occur at other than 1g. ACCESSORY GROUP - Mechanical and electrical units mounted on an engine necessary for its operation, such as starter, magnetos, fuel pumps, etc.
ACCELERATED DEPRECIATION When depreciation is higher than normal rate, normally used for tax purposes. ACMI LEASE Abbreviation Aircraft, crew, maintenance and insurance lease (see Wet Lease) ...
Accelerated Stop Distance Available (ASDA) When calculating the take-off distance with all known factors one should also account for the accelerated stop distance available, ...
[edit] Accelerated Slipstream Lift can be roughly defined as an upwards force resulting from an airstream going over and under a wing.
ACCELERATE-STOP DISTANCE AVAILABLE- The runway plus stopway length declared available and suitable for the acceleration and deceleration of an airplane aborting a takeoff.
Accelerate horizontally (1 foot AGL) to VR. Climb while accelerating to VY. Hop into ground effect just above VS.
MACRS (Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System) The current method of accelerated asset depreciation required by the United States tax code; enacted in 1986. MANAGEMENT See 'Aircraft Management' ...
As the helicopter accelerates into translational lift, an aggressive lowering of the nose with cyclic will be required to avoid initiating a climb.
In order to get off the ground you will want good engine power; it takes considerable thrust to accelerate an airplane on the ground to its flying speed; ...
It accelerates about like a Cessna 150 even with 10,000 horsepower. At about 50 knots you pick the tail up and you can see a little better.
Depending on the aircraft's altitude and airspeed, it is wise to retract the flaps in small increments allowing the aircraft to accelerate progressively as they are being raised.
You know that when a given amount of air is accelerated (its speed increases), the pressure drops.
Commercial pilots must be at least 18 years old and have a minimum of 250 hours of flight time (190 hours under the accelerated curriculum defined in Part 141 of the Federal Aviation Regulations), including 100 hours in powered aircraft, ...
Rotor drives initially took the form of a rope wrapped around the rotor axle and then pulled by a team of men to accelerate the rotor - this was followed by a long taxi to bring the rotor up to speed sufficient for takeoff.
Some aircraft, like fighter planes or experimental high speed aircraft, require very high excess thrust to accelerate quickly and to overcome the high drag associated with high speeds.
The fuel can accelerate corrosion on some engine parts. By using an after run oil, the fuel is displaced, and a protective coating lines sensitive engine parts. This is an inexpensive engine insurance, and promotes long engine life.
An airfoil should be designed with a greater curvature on the upper side, in order to allow the air to accelerate as it passes over it.
This pumping process uses lots of horsepower and accelerates the air to relatively high velocities. Air velocity under the helicopter may reach 60 to 100 knots, depending on the size of the rotor and the gross weight of the helicopter.
I eased in power, and the smooth, quiet Jabiru engine cleanly accelerated us back to level flight. Allen then suggested I pull more smartly back on the stick. At last, down in the mid-40s, the nose dipped and a wing dropped, as if nodding politely.
Ahead of the leading edge, air is moving up (upwash). At the trailing edge, air is diverted down (downwash). Over the top the air is accelerated towards the trailing edge. Underneath, the air is accelerated forward slightly, if at all.
When ready for takeoff, and cleared by Air Traffic Control to proceed, the pilot or first officer of an aircraft releases the brakes and advances the throttle to increase engine power to accelerate down the runway.
An aerobatic manoeuvre that uses the torque reaction to accelerate the rate of roll of an aircraft. Touch-And-Go Landing and taking off without a pause. Useful to practise when learning to fly.
A basic guidance mode, providing lateral guidance, longitudinal guidance and vertical guidance to climb then to accelerate, while maintaining a wings-level roll; in some implementations (such as SOA), ...
AFTER RUN OIL A lubricant designed to displace unburned fuel in the engine after running. The fuel can accelerate corrosion on some engine parts. By using an after ... AFTN Aeronautical Fixed Telecommunication Network ...
EXPEDITED AWARDS: Service offered by many programs for an additional cost; expedited awards allow members to accelerate processing and delivery of award tickets or certificates. Often the requested award is delivered within 24 hours.
A "Terminal Velocity Dive" is the steepest dive in which the aeroplane accelerates until its drag becomes equal to the thrust of gravity pulling it downwards so that the speed remains constant.
RAMJET ENGINE - An aerodynamic duct in which fuel is burned to produce a high-velocity propulsive jet. It needs to be accelerated to high speed before it can become operative.
RATO - Rocket-assisted take-off virtually the same as JATO.
The disadvantage of the leading edge slat is that the air accelerated in the slot requires energy which means higher drag.
