Fixed Wing Examples
airliners
, Helicopters, gyro-copters, and tilt-rotor flying
Rotary-Wing Examples
machines
Machine supported aloft by lift created by air flowing
Aircraft across airfoil, wings, propeller, rotor blades or
buoyancy
Civilian Aircraft normal, utility, acrobatic, commuter, transport,
categorized as manned free balloons, special classes
Military aircraft are of the mission that they perform
categorized based off
increase wings surface area and augment (increase)
Flaps
lift to reduce air speed
Hinged panels that move upward after landing to
Spoiler
destroy lift
Decelerate the aircraft in flight and increase the rate
Air Brakes (Speed Brakes)
of descent
The main structural member inside each wing
Spar
These run the length of the wing
are attached perpendicularly to the spar to provide
Ribs
more support and strength
Wings of most planes that Are shaped perpendicular
fly below the speed of
sound
Wings of most planes that are swept back to delay the drag of air
fly above the speed of compressibility. Swept wings increase the
sound performance on high performance planes
Delta wing This is a triangular shaped wing
The wings are positioned perpendicular at take off,
Variable Geometry wings landing and low air speeds, then move to a swept
position when flying at high speeds
Planes that take off and Floats. They will take off and land on both water and
land on water have land because they have retractable wheels
