3. Flight at high altitude
Session 1: Flight at high altitude
Objective1: Emphasise critical aspect of high altitude cruise flight: very low pressure and temperature
Objective2: Show to students how passenger and crew life can be assured in an high altitude flight
Objective3: Give examples of some critical condition and how they are managed
Session 2: How works a pressurized fuselage
Objective: Explain that a fuselage of an airplane designed to fly at high altitude, besides other loads has to withstand a differential pressure between the external (atmosphere static) pressure and the internal thermodynamic pressure.
Session 3: Ice Problems
Objective 1: Explain problems and solutions in case of ice conditions
Objective 2: Give an insight in the today applied research on ice problems in aeronautical field
