Balance tab
Balance tab. An auxiliary control mounted on a primary control surface, which automatically moves in the direction opposite the primary control to provide an aerodynamic assist in the movement of the control.

Balance effects on aircraft
The distribution of weight in the aircraft determines if the center of gravity is within the limits set forth by the aircraft manufacturer. If it is not within the limits the aircraft is either tail heavy or nose heavy.
balance limits
The position of the centre of gravity along its longitudinal axis affects the stability of the airplane. There are forward and aft limits established by the aircraft design engineers beyond which the C.G.
balanced forces - Opposing forces that are pushing or pulling against each other with equal force. For example, if you and a friend pull on a rope, in the opposite direction with the same force, neither of you will move.
BALANCED CONTROL SURFACE - A movable control surface, as an aileron or rudder, having an added physical extension or weights forward of the hinge-point to reduce forces on a joystick or yoke. See ELEPHANT EARS (2).
Balanced Surfaces. Control surfaces of an aeroplane (ailerons, elevators, rudder and flaps) in which the aerodynamic movements about the hinge are wholly or partly self-balanced.
Prop Balancer Device designed to aid in the balancing of model airplane propellers.
Pull-Pull A linkage set up using two rods or wires. One is pulled for one direction, the other is pulled for the other.
Blade Balance
Rotor blades that are equal in weight will balance each other. Unbalanced (unequal in weight) rotor blades will cause model shake and instability in flight.

Balance refers to the location of the centre of gravity (cg) along the longitudinal axis of the aircraft. The cg is the point about which an aircraft would balance if it were possible to suspend it from that point.
cash balance - The available cash or liquid Treasury notes remaining in the Trust Fund; a measure of all revenues received (taxes, interest and adjustments) minus all cash outlays.
Weight and balance within the designer's specifications.

"Run up" of the engine as per manufacturer's recommendations. (This is especially important with the two-cycle engines that have become more and more popular recently.) ...
Weight and Balance gives us general procedures for weighing the aircraft, information as to the longitudinal and lateral stations of important places in the aircraft (such as seats, baggage compartments, fuel tanks).

In the top panel of the figure, we have an ordinary playground teeter-totter with two buckets of water on it. Each bucket contains a four-inch depth of water.

Current weight-and-balance reports for three 172s — Rich Jensen's "used but not abused" 1966 172G, Steve Brown's 1972 172L, and Jim Gibbs' 1980 172RG — provide real-world load-hauling and performance numbers.
-The point of balance of an airplane which may be otherwise defined as the point through which the mass of an airplane acts. If the weight is too far forward the machine is nose-heavy.
(Hovercraft) To allow your CG to be in balance with the craft and have a straight belt connection to your prop shaft install the engine with the transmission facing aft, ...
Maintaining a steady flight requires a balance, often described as an equilibrium of all the forces acting upon an airplane. Weight, lift, thrust and drag are the acting forces on an airplane.
In this case a check of the Airworthiness Certificate, Registration, the Operations & Limitations documents, and current Weight and Balance information should be in the airplane and visible to you and your passenger.
Cruising Flight If the four forces on an aircraft are perfectly balanced, the aircraft flies in a straight line at a constant speed.
Remember that at a hover, the blade angle is where the forces of lift and centrifugal force balance out.
Carbon offset providers work by funding clean energy and greenhouse gas reduction projects throughout the world and help individuals balance out their 'carbon footprint' every time they fly.
Nice to be able to say then that I haven't flown another LSA that felt more agreeably balanced, effortless to fly and well-mannered. Every aircraft has its balance of 'Wow!' and 'Hmmm...' attributes. Some are stable but drive stiff as a truck.
After testing, the design was revised to incorporate a larger three-bay wing, horn-balanced ailerons, modified undercarriage, and a triangular vertical fin. In this configuration, production commenced in April 1916. The G.

It basically is an out-of-balance condition in the rotor system of a helicopter on the ground that rapidly increases in frequency until the helicopter shakes itself apart.

CHARTER CARD Pre-paid air charter plan, either for a block of charter hours at a pre-defined fee, or a set debit balance in dollars.
Airport System Planning: The development of information and guidance to determine the extent, type, nature, location, and timing of airport development needed to establish a viable and balanced system of public airports.
Forces the tail left or right, correspondingly "yawing" the aircraft right or left. Rudder movement "coordinates" with the banking of wings to balance a turn. Controlled by left and right rudder (foot) pedals.
His only way to balance the craft was to shift his weight. He moved the lower half of his body in the direction he wished to go, which changed the centre of gravity.
around which the aircraft, if suspended, would balance). C of G limits are the most forward and rearward positions of the C of G permitted for safe operation. An aircraft loaded outside its C of G limits can be difficult or impossible to control.
between lift and weight will result in the airplane entering a climb or descent. Any inequality between thrust and drag while maintaining straight-and-level flight will result in acceleration or deceleration until the two forces become balanced.
