A heavier-than-air machine that is kept aloft by the forces on its wings
Common types of airplanes are airliners, large planes usually used to transport
passengers; military planes; and general-aviation aircraft, which cover all
airplanes that are not airliners or military aircraft
An airplane is thrust forward by a propeller or other means of
propulsion, such as a jet or rocket.
Typical speeds for supersonic aircraft are greater than 750 mph but less than
1500 mph, and the Mach number M is greater than one and less than 3. Above
Mach 5, the term hypersonic is used.
HISTORY

 Generals
 X-1
 Concord

Leonardo da Vinci was the first man to attempt the scientific design
of flying machines. But in his time no motor was available which was
powerful enough to lift a person into the air

The first successful controlled airplane flight was made by the
Wright brothers near Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, on December
17, 1903
The first of the X-planes. It was based on thetransport had an ogival delta wing, a

  • 4. INTRO A heavier-than-air machine that is kept aloft by the forces on its wings Common types of airplanes are airliners, large planes usually used to transport passengers; military planes; and general-aviation aircraft, which cover all airplanes that are not airliners or military aircraft An airplane is thrust forward by a propeller or other means of propulsion, such as a jet or rocket. Typical speeds for supersonic aircraft are greater than 750 mph but less than 1500 mph, and the Mach number M is greater than one and less than 3. Above Mach 5, the term hypersonic is used.

An particular, a wing or a whole aircraft), due to its aircraft flying at a constant speed will have thrust equal motion relative to the surrounding air.

Formequation used to calculate drag is: the The drag and pressure drag are virtually same type of drag. Form or pressure drag is D = ½ρV2SCD caused by the air that is flowing over the aircraft or airfoil. The separation of air creates turbulence and results in pockets of low and high pressure that leave a wake behind the airplane or airfoil
