ing with a crosswind; yaw induced by the rudder must be used to keep the fuselage
aligned with the runway and prevent an excursion into the grass.)
Stall -- What a wing does when a given angle of attack is exceeded (the stall an-
gle of attack). The stall is characterized by a progressive loss of lift for an increase in
angle of attack.
Tail -- The Tail has many movable parts. The pilot controls these parts from the
cockpit. Included in the parts on the Tail are the rudder and the elevators.
Thrust
1
The force produced by the engines, thrust works opposite of and counteracts
2
drag. Thrust is the forward movement that is necessary to sustain flight. It is one of
the four basic principles of flight.
Trim
3
-- When the controls are moved from neutral, it takes a certain amount of
pressure to hold them in position in the airflow. Trim gets rid of this pressure and ef-
fectively changes the "center" of the controls - or the neutral position where there is
no stick pressure.
Vertical Stabilizer -- The vertical stabilizer is the yaw stabilizer for the airplane; it
keeps the nose of the airplane (as seen from above) pointed into the relative wind.
Weight -- The force produced by the mass of the airplane interacting with the earth's
gravitational field; the force that must be counteracted by lift in order to maintain
flight.
Basic Weight - The weight of the basic aircraft plus guns, unusable fuel, oil, ballast,
survival kits

, oxygen, and any other internal or external equipment that is on board
the aircraft and will not be disposed of during flight.
Operating Weight - Is the sum of basic weight and items such as crew, crew baggage,
steward equipment, pylons and racks, emergency equipment, special mission fixed
equipment, and all other nonexpendable
5
items not in basic weight.
Gross Weight - Is the total weight of an aircraft, including its contents and externally
mounted items, at any time.
Landing Gross Weight - Is the weight of the aircraft, its contents, and external items
when the aircraft lands.
Zero Fuel Weight (ZFW) - Is the weight of the aircraft without any usable fuel. This
is due to structural limitations of aircraft)
Wing -- The Wings are the "arms" of the airplane. They provide the principal lifting
force of the airplane. They hold the plane aloft by creating lift from the air rushing
over them. Like all plane parts, the Wings should be light and strong, but also flexible
to absorb sudden gusts of wind.
Yaw -- The angle between the fuselage of the airplane and the relative wind as seen
from above the airplane. Yaw is the term pilots use to describe the turning left or
right of the plane. Yaw is the sideways movement of the plane. Normally an airplane
is flown without yaw.
