  2. Thrust reversal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrust_reversal

    Thrust reversal, also called reverse thrust, is the temporary diversion of an aircraft engine's thrust for it to act against the forward travel of the aircraft, providing deceleration. Thrust reverser systems are featured on many jet aircraft to help slow down just after touch-down, reducing wear on the brakes and enabling shorter landing ...

  3. Target-type thrust reversal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Target-type_thrust_reversal

    The reverse-thrust ratio (ratio of backward engine thrust to forward reverse thrust) can be as high as 84%. [6] However, this result is obtained with a cowl to attach air flow in a 7° angle and a large enough "target" (deflector door) installed. A reverse-thrust ratio of 55% can be reached on a simple target without the cowl. [7]

  4. Curtiss Aerocar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curtiss_Aerocar

    The Aerocar applied the fifth-wheel trailer concept used predominantly in the goods hauling industry for small business, public transport and recreational use. He applied aircraft construction methods to road vehicles including the Aerocar and was a pioneer of the automobile streamlining movement a decade before it became popular in 1930.

  5. Pushback (aviation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pushback_(aviation)

    The airplane may be pushed or pulled by landing gear or wing struts since they're known to be strong enough to drag the airplane through the air. To allow for turns, a person may either pick up or push down on the tail to raise either the nose wheel or tail wheel off the ground, then rotate the airplane by hand. A less cumbersome method ...

  6. Astern propulsion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astern_propulsion

    Most other propeller-driven ships will reverse the direction the prop spins. For a paddle wheel ship, reversing the direction of the paddle will provide astern propulsion. Redirecting the thrust of a water jet driven craft, changing the cyclic pitch of a Voith-Schneider propulsor, or rotating an azimuth thruster 180 degrees has the same effect ...

  7. Fifth-wheel coupling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fifth-wheel_coupling

    A wheel would be placed on the rear frame section of the truck, which at the time had only four wheels, making the additional wheel the "fifth wheel". The trailer needed to be raised so that the trailer's pin would be able to drop into the central hole of the fifth wheel. Fifth wheels were originally not a complete circle and were hand forged.

  8. de Havilland Canada Dash 7 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Havilland_Canada_Dash_7

    When reverse thrust is selected on landing, the props reverse pitch, push air forward, and slow the aircraft very effectively along with the antiskid main wheel brakes. More importantly, if an engine fails, the asymmetric thrust is much less than on a twin-engine layout, thereby increasing safety and allowing for a lower minimum control speed ...

  9. Livin Lite RV - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Livin_Lite_RV

    In 2012, the CampLite travel trailer front profile was redesigned to be more aerodynamic. [6] In 2013, they launched a fifth wheel trailer built with the same construction principles: aluminum chassis, aluminum frame, and no wood. Three lengths were offered: 26, 28, and, 32 foot.
