By Captain Crunch on Sunday, May 12th 2024 00:49Z "Even if there is a risk if a rain shaft obscuring the windshield, I would establish a safety tradition for rainy landings whereby I would use my already tuned ILS (NAV-1 radio) and/or VOR (NAV-2 radio) to steer my aircraft along the centerline while relying initially (during landing rollout) on rudder, before reverting to use of differential application of thrust reverse and never relying completely on differential braking or nosegear steering."

Aircraft use ailerons to control roll. How can this concept be applied to commercial shipping? Many types of vessel are stability limited due to their loadings: for example, container ships, Ro-Ro's, and Ferries. The ability to control the wing's shape so that thrust can be maximised while at the same time limiting the heeling force is possible with wings that easily can morph into different shapes. The AWS wing sail can morph without the need to complicated controls. If stability limits are placed on the wing, significantly higher thrusts can be obtained than with rigid or non articulated foils. This image shows the upper part of the wing inverted, which is actually contributing to righting moment! Dynamic Stability Control! And morphing can occur very quickly with minimal power input. #maritimeinnovation #maritimesafety #maritimenews #windpower #wasp

Discover the intricacies of aircraft load sheets and center of gravity calculations! The meticulous process begins with gathering passenger, baggage, cargo, and fuel data. Weight calculations encompass all components, while balance calculations ensure even distribution across the aircraft. Center of gravity is determined through moment calculations, ensuring the aircraft's stability. Verification against allowable limits and adjustments, if needed, guarantee safety. The finalized load sheet, containing weight, balance, and center of gravity data, guides flight crews pre-flight. This critical document ensures safe loading and adherence to operational limits. #AircraftLoadSheets #CenterOfGravity #AviationSafety #FlightOperations #FlightPreparation #AviationOasis https://lnkd.in/eJpPZrmY
