  2. Range gate pull-off - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_gate_pull-off

    If the radar was locked on to the aircraft, it will hopefully remain locked to this second pulse as the aircraft moves away from the original location. Eventually, the aircraft will fall outside the range gate and disappear, while the radar continues tracking the false signal. Thus, the false signal is said to "pull the range gate off the target".

  3. Quick access recorder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quick_access_recorder

    Earlier, data from a Trident's quick access recorder had provided the Air Accidents Investigation Branch (AAIB) with useful supplemental data over-and-above that of the aircraft's flight data recorder that helped the diagnosing of the cause of the 1972 British European Airways Flight 548, the "Staines air disaster" where the Trident's leading ...

  4. Flight recorder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flight_recorder

    By 1967, when flight recorders were mandated by leading aviation countries, the expression had found its way into general use: "These so-called 'black boxes' are, in fact, of fluorescent flame-orange in colour." [26] The formal names of the devices are flight data recorder and cockpit voice recorder. The recorders must be housed in boxes that ...

  5. High-lift device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-lift_device

    The triple-slotted trailing edge flaps are well displayed and the Krueger flaps on the leading edge also are visible. In aircraft design and aerospace engineering, a high-lift device is a component or mechanism on an aircraft's wing that increases the amount of lift produced by the wing. The device may be a fixed component, or a movable ...

  7. Leading edge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leading_edge

    As wing sweep is conventionally measured at the 25% chord line [3] an unswept wing may have a swept or tapered leading edge. Some aircraft, like the General Dynamics F-111, have swing-wings where the sweep of both wing and leading edge can be varied. In high-speed aircraft, compression heating of the air ahead of the wings can cause extreme ...

  8. Leading-edge droop flap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leading-edge_droop_flap

    The leading-edge droop flap is a device on the leading edge of aircraft wings designed to improve airflow at high angles of attack. The droop flap is similar to the leading-edge slat and the Krueger flap , but with the difference that the entire leading edge section rotates downwards, whereas the slat and Krueger flap are panels which move away ...

  9. Leading-edge extension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leading-edge_extension

    Aircraft wing leading-edge extensions – annotated. A leading-edge extension (LEX) is a small extension to an aircraft wing surface, forward of the leading edge.The primary reason for adding an extension is to improve the airflow at high angles of attack and low airspeeds, to improve handling and delay the stall.
