AMT 121 ASSEMBLY AND RIGGING Flashcards
It command and control
Cockpit
Secondary flight controls includes:
Flaps, Spoilers, Slats, Tabs
It change lift and drag
Flaps
are most widely used method for modifying lift. Most _____
are on the trailing edge of the wing inboard of the ailerons,
but some are located on the wings leading edge.
Flaps
it generate thrust
Jet Engine
Change Roll (Rotate Body)
Aileron
are aerodynamic surfaces on the leading edge of the wings
of fixed-wing aircraft which, when deployed, allow the
wing to operate at a higher angle of attack.
Slats
it Generate lift
Wings
Change lift and Drag (Rotate Body)
Spoiler
Making your wing more versatile
Flaps
small auxiliary devices on the trailing edge of various
primary control surfaces are
used to produce aerodynamic forces to trim the aircraft or
to aid the pilot in moving the controls.
Tabs
Controls pitch
Horizontal stabilizer
TYPES OF FLAPS:
Plain Flaps, Split Flaps, Slotted Flaps, Fowler Flaps, Triple-Slotted Flaps, Leading Edge Flaps, Kruger Flap
Controls Yaw
Vertical Stabilizer
When lift increased, Drag?
Increased
Change Lift
Slats
A higher
coefficient of lift is produced as a result of angle of attack
and speed, so by deploying ____ an aircraft can fly at slower
speeds, or take off and land in shorter distances.
Slats
are used to assist or to modify the effect of the primary flight
controls.
Secondary Flight Controls
Change Yaw (Side-to-Side)
Rudder
are hinged surfaces located ahead of the flaps. They are
used in conjunction with the
ailerons to assist in roll control.
Spoilers
Hold things together (Carry Payload - Fuel)
Fuselage (Body)
Change Pitch (up-down)
Elevator
