  2. Longeron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longeron

    Interior of a Boeing/Stearman PT-17 showing small channel section stringers. In engineering, a longeron or stringer is a load-bearing component of a framework. The term is commonly used in connection with aircraft fuselages and automobile chassis. Longerons are used in conjunction with stringers to form structural frameworks. [1]

  3. Former - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Former

    The "former-and-longeron" technique (also called stations and stringers) was adopted from boat construction, [2] and was typical of light aircraft built until the advent of structural skins, such as fiberglass and other composite materials. Many of today's light aircraft, and homebuilt aircraft [3] in particular, are still designed in this way.

  4. Naval Air Training and Operating Procedures Standardization

    Aircraft specific NATOPS manual cover. These manuals are typically about 2 inches thick. These are manuals for specific aircraft models containing standardized ground and flight operating procedures, training requirements, aircraft limitations, and technical data necessary for safe and effective operation of the aircraft.

  5. Boulton Paul P.10 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boulton_Paul_P.10

    The front fuselage was built on four tubular longerons, but from leading edge rearwards it consisted of a set of oval formers with stringers. [1] The greatest novelty of the P.10 was that this part of the fuselage was not only a monocoque structure (still fairly unusual at the time), but a monocoque of steel with a load-bearing plastic skin ...

  6. Spar (aeronautics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spar_(aeronautics)

    Aircraft utilizing three or more spars are considered multi-spar aircraft. Using multiple spars allows for an equivalent overall strength of wing, but with multiple, smaller, spars, which in turn allow for a thinner wing or tail structure (at a cost of increased complexity and difficulty of packaging additional equipment such as fuel tanks ...

  7. List of aircraft carriers of the United States Navy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_aircraft_carriers...

    The U.S. Navy has also used escort aircraft carriers (CVE, previously AVG and ACV) and airship aircraft carriers (ZRS). In addition, various amphibious warfare ships (LHA, LHD, LPH, and to a lesser degree LPD and LSD classes) can operate as carriers; two of these were converted to mine countermeasures support ships (MCS) , one of which carried ...

  8. Hansa-Brandenburg W.29 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hansa-Brandenburg_W.29

    [2] The detailed design of the aircraft and its stress calculations was done by Hanns Klemm. [3] The W.29 retained the company's signature plywood slab-sided fuselage configuration with four main longerons and stringers rising aft of the engine supports to elevate the observer's position and improve his field of fire.

  9. Villiers IV - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Villiers_IV

    The fuselage of the Type IV was built around six spruce longerons with stringers, formers and poplar plywood skinning but no internal cross-bracing producing a semi-monocoque structure. Its engine was a 450 hp (340 kW) Lorraine-Dietrich water-cooled W-12 with a Lamblin radiator mounted transversely under it.
