Objective1: Emphasize critical condition that can occurs during take off or landing phases
Objective2: Explain the importance of the fin and the rudder for an airplane
Objective3: Show an application of passive safety (crashworthiness)
Explanation:
The teaching materials of these sections are utilized to show the control capability of an airplane in the case of one engine out or side wind in take off or landing conditions. Moreover will be shown how crashworthiness technology can save human life or avoidsevere injuries in the case of an hard landing.
Material:
- Multimedia whit board + Power Point Like Software
- Set of devices for experimentation
- Pictures
- Videos
Figure 10: Take off phase
Figure 11: Landing phase
Main activities
- By pictures and experiments will be shown how an airplane can flight along the run way in case of an engine out or in the case of a strong side wind. If possible some videos will be shown of these events.
- Some videos can be shown on an emergency landing, with the crash of fuselage. A simple experiments will be performed to show some application of crashworthiness technology
Maximum duration
90 minutes
Main question to be asked
- Is the one engine out condition more or less critical depending on the airplane configuration?
- Does an airplane contrast any value of a side wind condition?
- Why are the one engine out and side wind conditions less critical at high altitude?
