Synchronising Gear: A mechanism designed to permit the firing of a machine-gun or guns through the disc of a revolving propeller.
Synchronized Elevator
A movable wing that helps stabilize the helicopter in flight.
Crosstube
The mounting tubes and connection for the skids.

Engine Fan Synchronizer
SYNCHRO
Any device capable of converting mechanical position into an analog electronic signal.
GPS is an extremely accurate tool, but if a satellite develops a problem with it signal or its clock becomes out of synchronization, it will still transmit and form an error at the receiver.
The Flettner Fl 282 Kolibri synchropter's hull was more like a modern helicopter's in shape, with no tail rotor, and counter-rotating intermeshing rotors set close together on the cabin top, ...
30-caliber synchronized machine guns, which made it comparable to World War I fighters in firepower. It was also slower than the Curtiss PW-8.
The final solution was the interrupter gear, also known as "synchronization gear", developed by Fokker and fitted to the Fokker E.I monoplane in 1915.
INTERROGATOR- The ground-based surveillance radar beacon transmitter-receiver, which normally scans in synchronism with a primary radar, transmitting discrete radio signals which repetitiously request all transponders on the mode being used to reply.
Given its head, the Ovation 3 slips through the sky with the synchronicity of a Ginsu through hot butter.
Loran - low-frequency hyperbolic radio long-range navigation system which measures time difference between reception of synchronised signals transmitted from ground transmitters.
When the resonance of many parts of a machine are in synch, the whole machine will vibrate at a greater rate. This can cause vibration damage.
It all calls for getting the brain in synch with the hands and keeping the connection refreshed and active through out the excercise. Maybe that's why Michaelangelo laid on his back while painting the Cystine Chapel....
Armament: One 0.303in Vickers machine gun fixed on top centreline with synchronising gear, one or two 0.303in Lewis mounted on Scarff ring on rear seat, plus up to twelve 20lb bombs.
Aperiodic.
A process that executes based on events rather than a fixed rate, it is not synchronized to other processes of interest; Compare: periodic;
APPR.

Cooperating airlines try to synchronize their schedules and coordinate luggage handling, which makes transfers between connecting flights less time-consuming.
MPFI (or just MPI) systems can be sequential, in which injection is timed to coincide with each cylinder’s intake stroke; batched, in which fuel is injected to the cylinders in groups, without precise synchronization to any particular ...
The pilot does this by simultaneously moving the cyclic to the right as he pushes the right pedal. The timing of the two must by synchronized. If the pedal is moved quickly, the cyclic must move quickly.
