If a plane is moving from left to right the type of movement is
Pitch
Yaw
Roll
The part of the airplane that moves up and down and causes the aircraft to roll is called
Rudder
Elevators
Ailerons
Wings
The up and down motion of the airplane nose is called
Pitch
Yaw
Roll
The hinged part of the stabilizer that is used to deflect the tail so the aircraft can move up and down is the?
Ailerons
Rudder
Elevators
Wings
The up and down motion of the wings is known as
Pitch
Yaw
Roll
The small moving section at the rear of the stabilizer that helps control the side to side motion of the plane is called
Ailerons
Rudder
Elevators
Wings
If you are the pilot and you want the plane to roll toward the right, what part(s) would you move?
Raise the left aileron and lower the right aileron
Raise the right aileron and lower the left aileron
Raise the elevators on the right side of the plane and lower the left elevators
Raise the elevators on the left side of the plane and lower the right elevators
If you want the plane to pitch up, what part(s) would you move?
Raise the ailerons to make the plane pitch down
Lower the ailerons to make the plane pitch up
Raise the elevators to make the plane pitch up
Lower the elevators to make the plane pitch down
If you are trying to land the plane, which parts would you move?
The rudders to pitch the plane downward
Lower the ailerons to pitch the plane downward
Lower the elevators to pitch the plan downward
You are tasked with designing an airplane that could carry a very large load of cargo. What type of airfoil would you use for the wing? Choose all that apply.
Low camber
High camber - thick wing section
Symmetrical camber
High camber - thin wing section
You are designing an airplane to carry liquid cargo that will slosh and move side to side in its container. This could make the plane unstable. What type of airfoil would you use for the wing?
Low camber
High camber - thin wing section
High camber - thick wing section
Symmetrical camber
You have to design an airplane that is very fast. What type of airfoil would you use for the wing?
Symmetrical camber
High camber-thin wing section
High camber - thick wing section
Low camber
