The test focused on testing the aircraft’s handling qualities without the stability augmentation system (SAS) activated. Boom Supersonic Boom Supersonic Boom Supersonic Boom Supersonic The post Boom Supersonic XB-1 nears supersonic flight after passing stability test appeared first on AeroTime.

The trim on the horizontal stabilizer – the rear wing of the aircraft – was not working. Then the tone indicating the movement of the horizontal stabilizer sounded. The aircrafts horizontal stabilizer had pitched to 3.6 As such, Tansky had to rely on elevators alone to climb to 31,000 feet.

TSB Approach sequence Due to reported wind gusts as the CRJ900 approached Toronto Pearson following a flight from MinneapolisSaint Paul International Airport (MSP) the aircraft was flown at 149 knots. seconds before touchdown the aircrafts indicated airspeed was 136 knots, and its ground speed was 111 knots.

This included testing the retraction and extension of the landing gear, as well as assessing a digital stability augmentation system known as a roll damper to enhance in-flight stability. Additionally, tufting, a technique used to visualize airflow, was applied to the right wing to ensure aerodynamic performance.

While there are a number of piston engines capable of operating on more readily available jet fuel, late last year, Gogetair flew its top-of-the-line G750 aircraft with a Turbotech TP-R90 turboprop engine. First, the structural design of the aircraft offers an optimized center of gravity that results in better flight stability and handling.

It’s typically measured in knots (nautical miles per hour), with one knot being about 1.15 As an aircraft accelerates, especially at or above 200 knots, the air particles flowing around it become tightly packed. Although they each provide specific information, using them together will give you a better picture of your stability.

The CRJ is interesting to fly with a lot of trimming required as it’s a long-bodied jet with a large swing either side of the CG. I mean, all jets I have flown are like that, but this is fairly sensitive to pitch, power, and flap configuration—all requiring lots of trimming. With a lighter corporate jet, that is powerful.
