8.2 Flashcards
1
Q
Pitch angle
A
Angle between the longitudinal axis of the aircraft and the local horizon
2
Q
Flexure of a rearward swept wing will
A
Decrease the lift and hence decrease the flexure
3
Q
What effect would a fwd CG have on an aircraft on landing?
A
Increase stalling speed
4
Q
Coefficient of induced drag (Cdi) is the ratio of
A
Cl squared and the aspect ratio
5
Q
Vmo
A
Max airspeed certified to operate
6
Q
Vso
A
Stalking speed/min steady flight speed
7
Q
Compared to a cambered Aerofoil, the zero lift a of a of a symmetrical airfoil is
A
Higher
8
Q
A of a as density decreases
A
Increases,
Aircraft at high altitude fly with greater angle of attack
