Walk around an airliner

Recommended Posts

hhmmm...i made everyone confuse.... blink.gif

 

it needs a minimum aileron to turn an aircraft.

example, aircraft on right turn, joystick neutral...to roll back, yes off course we need to counter it right....???

 

hhmm...i got ot be an aerodynamic teacher then...go to explain all the 3 axis of an aircraft.

Teo, dont make yourself confuse in details... you might be right.

 

 

Let see this flaperon, droop position....no hydraulic powering its power control unit.

some people say, a 737 can be swallow into a 777 engines...not this one ok...GE-90 maybe yes.

RR is the lightest 777 engine. Save weight, save fuel...save money in MH...?? wink.gif

 

Rolls Royce Trent 892B...meaning its a Trent 800 with 92,000 lbs thrust.

haha.. TK, I think I understand the 3-axis of the aircraft...

 

Just thought it was weird when you say just put the 737 yoke on neutral and it'll level off by itself in a turn without the need to counter it... dry.gif

 

Keep the pictures coming!

Thank you "Teacher TK" for some very interesting insights. Greatly appreciate them.

 

As for fan-blade pix, the pointed cone reminds me of Madonna's costume in her concert.

Actually when i do my walk around, apart from looking at the exterior of an aircraft, i have to be careful with all the vehicles moving around.

Look closely, you see the blades, then the blocker doors when reverser not in ops.

What happen when a reverser is activated during landing roll, these blocker doors will come up like flower...it pushes the air out through the translating sleeves.

IIRC it was first flown in November last year and was delivered in Dec 2004. So it is less than a year old.

*drool* elegant bird = beautful pics! biggrin.gif

 

TK,when you come to KCH,you ever start your take-off run right after exiting taxiway A,without backtrack to the end of rwy25? Amazing to see the bird with short-take-off ability!

 

..and the cruising speed,its always 290kts right?
