Fire from the eight machine guns of a Hawker Hurricane is shown converging to a point, then diverging. (Drawing not to scale.) In aerial gunnery, gun harmonisation, convergence pattern, convergence zone, convergence point or bore-sight point refers to the aiming of fixed guns or cannon carried in the wings of a fighter aircraft.
An established point from which the position of an object can be referenced; made by cardinal/range or digital format. Bump/Bump-up Start temporary increase of flight altitude to set the aircraft to a favorable glide path to the target on the attack run. Burn glint Used to provide illumination. Buster Directive call to fly at maximum continuous ...

(commonly known as JSX) is an American air carrier in the United States and Mexico that describes itself as a "hop-on jet service" [2] that operates point-to-point flights between and within Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Nevada, New Mexico, New York, Texas, and Utah in the United States and Baja California Sur in Mexico.
The waypoint at which the decision is made as to which destination to go to is called the reclear fix or decision point. On reaching this waypoint, the flight crew make a comparison between actual and predicted fuel burn and check how much reserve fuel is available.
Engine failure due to accidental use of jet fuel in water-injection tanks After take-off, both engines failed; pilots decided to make emergency landing on highway – Bundesautobahn 7 (also part of European route E45) – about 4.5 km (3 mi) from Hamburg Airport. During landing, aircraft collided with bridge, shearing both wings; plane caught fire.

Blown flaps, blown wing or jet flaps are powered aerodynamic high-lift devices used on the wings of certain aircraft to improve their low-speed flight characteristics. They use air blown through nozzles to shape the airflow over the rear edge of the wing, directing the flow downward to increase the lift coefficient .
