  2. Can delamination be detected early? - Aviation Stack Exchange

    aviation.stackexchange.com/questions/22153

    In case the delamination occurs on the surface, it can be easily found by visual inspection. This is the easiest method to detect delaminations; however, this is useful only if the delaminations are visible from the outside (i.e. they are on the surface), which is rarely the case, at-least in aircraft. Ultrasonic testing- In this method ...

  3. Also, just because the unit has a capability doesn't mean it was installed in a manner that can use it. How you use an installed piece of equipment (an appliance in FAA certification terms) is controlled by the AFMS which becomes part of the aircraft's flight manual under the STC. The best answer should be to 'read the manual'. $\endgroup$ –

  4. As soon as uncommanded: speed deviation of 15-20kts. Vertical speed deviation and glide slope deviation of 1 dot and if EGPWS incorporates windshear call outs and Flight Director guidance for windshear recovery; SIMULTANEOUSLY:

    aviation.stackexchange.com/questions/45098

    CAE, TRU, FlightSafety, Indra, Axis, L-3 have delivered Level D simulators with in house developed software models and verified flight model responses. Some research institutes have delivered simulator flight models. NLR of The Netherlands has delivered a Level-C helicopter flight model for KARi for instance.

    Later, when you roll out of the turn, you use right rudder then while your stick is on the right, and then return the rudder to the centre when you return the stick to the centre. When you're turning across the wind direction, you'll definitely need to adjust the rudder position because the direction of the airflow against the aircraft changes.

  7. How do military radars detect the type of an aircraft?

    aviation.stackexchange.com/questions/42941

    That is how they did it in the early days of radar. Nowadays, detecting the type of aircraft, is done with transponders. The aircraft itself will broadcast its type and position. Traditional radar is only used as backup on most airfields if a transponder fails. Military uses ofcourse are different.

  8. How do airports detect drones? - Aviation Stack Exchange

    aviation.stackexchange.com/questions/84542/how-do-airports-detect-drones

    To address these limitations, drone detection systems are under development, and some airports have deployed them with varying levels of success. Ideally, a Drone Detection System (DDS) meets these high level requirements: it detects all drones in the vicinity of the airport. it locates these drone (s) accurately.

  9. How can I keep my A&P license active without being in aviation?

    aviation.stackexchange.com/questions/51483

    If you are "not in aviation", then I assume you are not working in/around/on airplanes. You are required to keep currency as per 61.83: ###§ 65.83 Recent experience requirements. A certificated mechanic may not exercise the privileges of his certificate and rating unless, within the preceding 24 months -

    Note that you do not need super-expensive RLG-IMU, but you might get away with cheaper MEMS-based IMUs (*1). However (and I cannot stress this enough), it all depends on your specification: If you know your attitude from your IMU, you can better control your missile as you now are able use feedback-control (*2).

  11. Why do spoilers seem to be slightly activated during take off?

    aviation.stackexchange.com/questions/18858

    Spoiler deployment increases pressure ahead of the spoiler due to the slowing of local flow ahead of the obstruction caused by the spoiler, and it creates a local flow separation at and behind the spoiler, which in turn lowers the local pressure. Only the first effect lowers lift, but both create drag. The main effect of a limited spoiler ...
