3 Wing  All airplanes come equipped with ailerons and flaps, which are attached to the wings  AILERONS extend from the midpoint of each wing to the outward tip, which move in opposite directions  This allows for the plane to maneuver right and left  FLAPS extend from the midpoint of each wing to the edge of the fuselage, which extend at multiple degrees  Allow for an increase in lift for takeoffs and landings http://blog.sciencegeekgirl.com/2008/04/18/myth- 5-how-do-airplanes-fly/ More about how Wings Work

4 Powerplant  The powerplant includes both the engine and the propeller, which are mounted on the front of the aircraft  The primary function of the ENGINE is to provide power to turn the propeller  Like a vehicle, is the main component of an aircraft  The PROPELLER, is what acts as a forward-acting force called thrust.  This helps move the airplane through air, as well as on ground

5 Landing Gear  Landing gear is an important feature which allows for the plane to make a safe landing, consisting of 3 wheels  There are two main wheels positioned underneath the fuselage  One wheel positioned at the front of the aircraft, called the nosewheel  Landing gear is an important feature which allows for the plane to make a safe landing, consisting of 3 wheels  There are two main wheels positioned underneath the fuselage  One wheel positioned at the front of the aircraft, called the nosewheel Tricycle Gear vs. Tail Dragger

6 Fuselage  The fuselage houses the cabin/cockpit wich contains seats for the pilots and anyone on board.  Inside the Fuselage you can find the controls and instruments.  The fuselage houses the cabin/cockpit wich contains seats for the pilots and anyone on board.  Inside the Fuselage you can find the controls and instruments.

7 Empenage  The empennage consist of the VERTICAL STABILIZER and HORIZONTAL STABILIZER  The vertical stabilizer helps maintain a steady route through use of the rudder (attached to the vertical stabilizer)  The horizontal stabilizer helps control elevation through use of the elevator (attached to the horizontal stabilizer)  The empennage consist of the VERTICAL STABILIZER and HORIZONTAL STABILIZER  The vertical stabilizer helps maintain a steady route through use of the rudder (attached to the vertical stabilizer)  The horizontal stabilizer helps control elevation through use of the elevator (attached to the horizontal stabilizer) READ MORE
