course line - (1) a line extending in the direction of the course. (2) a line of position on or parallel to the course.
Course Cut Limit (CCLIM): A guidance control law parameter, generated by the lateral guidance modes; limits the intercept angle of the flight path with a desired course, typically 45degrees.
Course: Towards a point specified initially.

Of course, we must enter Paris under something like the conditions in which Charles Lindbergh (or Lindy or Lucky Lindy or The Lone Eagle) entered it on that famous day and year, or more properly, night and year, May 21, 1927.
Of course, your aircraft must be ready as well, and this includes:
Weight and balance within the designer's specifications.

Of course! As one very proud Cub pilot, I was excited to see how the big brother of the J3's would compare. I was itching to hop into this Super Cub though, and I leapt up to go, having collected my headset.
Of course, during the transition from level flight to a steady climb an unbalanced vertical force must be applied momentarily, but the force is rather small.
Of course, all such efforts can be canceled out by poor planning and zoning decisions. If airports are to peacefully co-exist with their communities, it is essential that certain types of development, particularly houses, be separated from airports.
Of course, there are exceptions. As with larger schools, it doesn't hurt to get references. Ask the same kinds of questions you would at a larger school, but add one: How would you describe the instructor's teaching style?
Of course the whole thing falls down if you consider that if the radio or radar failed now, the American is going to merrily trot outside controlled airspace if it continues on that heading for long enough, ...
Of course not just anyone can fly a plane: To get a pilot's license you must be 17 years old and have completed 40 hours of private flying instruction in addition to completing several knowledge and medical tests.
Of course, you will engage a guard to watch the machine all night; see that a rope is strung around the airplane to keep off the crowd which may collect.
Off course, the pilot must exercise the correct technique for short and soft runways to obtain these numbers. When not proficient, have an instructor onboard for some quality time under these circumstances.
"Of course you must," replied the capitalist, affably; "and I shall be very pleased to sell you some."
"But we ain't got no bloody money!" ...
Track A course followed across the surface of the earth by the centre of gravity of an aeroplane. This is not always the course set. The track is influenced by wind and pilot error.

The entire safety course group was given a tour of the factory, and a lot of people in my group mentioned what an amazing factory it is. For one, it's huge. You can see that in the picture above. It's also amazingly clean and well lit.

Magnetic course: Intended horizontal direction, measured in degrees clockwise from the magnetic north.
Mach number: Ratio of true airspeed to the speed of sound. Mach 1 is the speed of sound at sea level. Its value is approximately 760 mph.
The flight laboratory runs courses in flight testing wherein students participate to collect, analyze and evaluate performance and handling qualities of the airplanes.
This is of course for a few reasons. The first being operating cost. Since the light jets are of such little weight and can fly at high speeds and altitudes, its fuel consumption is less.
During the course of 1939, 43 F2A-2s with a more powerful engine and a few minor changes were ordered to replace the F2A-1s.

AREA NAVIGATION (RNAV) - Method of navigation that permits aircraft operation on any desired course within the coverage of station-referenced navigation signals or within the limits of a self-contained system capability, or a combination of both.
A school with examining authority for a particular course or courses has the authority to recommend its graduates for pilot certificates or ratings without further testing by the FAA.
Most of the planes, of course, were fighters and bombers, but the importance of air transports to the war effort quickly became apparent as well.
Sometimes as part of an instrument approach a pilot has to fly the wrong way on the localizer path, which is called flying the back course.
To keep your license, of course, you have to fly regularly - and you can't find a better organization than Wits Flying Club for that! ...
Day-night average sound level (DNL) - A noise measure used to describe the average sound level over a 24-hour period, typically an average day over the course of a year.
Alignment (Azimuth): The azimuth or actual magnetic bearing of a course.
Alignment (Elevation): The actual angle above a horizontal plane, originating at a specific point of a course used for altitude guidance.
First, Why compound? and the answer is of course to achieve higher speeds by providing extra thrust.
But with the higher speeds come the problems of retreating blade stall and increased rotor stress.
A departure from a current clearance, such as an off course maneuver to avoid weather or turbulence. Where specifically authorized in the FARs and requested by the pilot, ATC may permit pilots to deviate from certain regulations.

IN (Direction)
Informative indicating a turn to a hot aspect relative to a threat/target.
During the course of his experiments he found out that a curved surface had twice the lift as a flat one, and next he discovered that a kite with two separated "cells" or double planes, had the greatest stability and oaring power.
The term "direct flight" can actually be applied to any routing that maintains the same flight number throughout the entire course of the routing, even if the routing contains enroute stops or requires a change of airplane. Strange but true.
C. Within the last 180 calendar days, attended the Jumpmaster Refresher Course given by the Advanced Airborne School.

Of course, for those using the STOL CH 801 as a sport utility plane, there's enough room inside for two to camp in, and more than enough baggage area for extended cross-country trips.
fan) seeks to avoid this tradeoff by doing away with the duct altogether and designing the compressor (propeller) with exotic plan forms and airfoils to operate efficiently in the transonic realm. This approach has its own problems, of course, ...
The Airline Pilots Association International, which represents 60,000 pilots who fly for 40 U.S. and Canadian airlines had been fighting the change since the early 1980s, but reversed course earlier this year.

" While the Me 262 had a negligible impact on the course of the war, with 509 claimed Allied kills], (although higher claims are sometimes made) for more than 100 Me 262 losses, its design had a strong influence on postwar aircraft development.
and then attaches to the release forming a triangle. The tow line can move from side to side but pull is still coming from the thrust line and CG position. Since using this system of tow line we have sorted out problems of being pulled off course.
This is usually achieved by building a geometric twist into the wing structure by rotating the trailing edge so providing a gradual decrease in AOA from root to tip, but of course washout reduces the total lift capability a little but this ...
