  2. Propeller (aeronautics) - Wikipedia

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

    A 6-bladed Hamilton Standard 568F propeller on an ATR 72 short-haul airliner. Lowry [27] quotes a propeller efficiency of about 73.5% at cruise for a Cessna 172.This is derived from his "Bootstrap approach" for analyzing the performance of light general aviation aircraft using fixed pitch or constant speed propellers.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaanxi_Y-9

    Development of the Y-9 may have begun as early as 2002 as the Y-8X program. The program was a collaborative effort with Antonov – the designers of the An-12 that it was ultimately derived from – and was aimed at competing with the Lockheed Martin C-130J Super Hercules .

  4. Ducted fan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ducted_fan

    Ducted fans are used for propulsion or direct lift in many types of vehicle including airplanes, airships, hovercraft, and powered lift VTOL aircraft. The high-bypass turbofan engines used on many modern airliners is an example of a very successful and popular use of ducted fan design.

  5. Parts departing aircraft - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parts_Departing_Aircraft

    In aviation safety, parts departing aircraft or parts detached from aeroplanes (PDA), also known as objects falling off airplanes (OFA), things falling off aircraft (TFOA), and other analogous variations, can range from small fasteners like screws and rivets up to major sub-assemblies like hatch covers and doors.

  6. Hamilton Standard - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamilton_Standard

    Hamilton Standard was an American aircraft propeller parts supplier. It was formed in 1929 when United Aircraft and Transport Corporation consolidated Hamilton Aero Manufacturing and Standard Steel Propeller into the Hamilton Standard Propeller Corporation. Other members of United Aircraft included Boeing, United Airlines, Sikorsky and Pratt ...

  7. Flight control surfaces - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flight_control_surfaces

    Development of an effective set of flight control surfaces was a critical advance in the development of aircraft. Early efforts at fixed-wing aircraft design succeeded in generating sufficient lift to get the aircraft off the ground, but once aloft, the aircraft proved uncontrollable, often with disastrous results. The development of effective ...

  8. Ground-adjustable propeller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground-adjustable_propeller

    Ground-adjustable propellers, which are mostly used on light and very light aircraft, are much cheaper and lighter than more sophisticated and versatile in-flight-adjustable propellers. A ground-adjustable propeller allows pitch changes to be made, although not in flight, to optimise the aircraft for current payload and flying conditions. [2]

  9. Scimitar propeller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scimitar_propeller

    This powerful form of drag reduces propeller efficiency at high rotational speed which, in turn, reduces power transmission from the aircraft's engine. [2] In the case of a propeller, this effect can happen when the propeller turns fast enough that the tips of the blades approach the speed of sound, even if the plane itself is not moving forward.
