Principle of Flight- 4 different forces acting on the
aircraft:- Lift, Weight, Thrust and Drag.- In Boeing 737, thrust
component (from Engine) is slightly lower than Drag line (Wing and Fuselage)
Increase Power? NOSE UP!
http://hk.vatsea.net (+852) 35947770VATSIM Hong Kong
3 Axis and Moments- Three axis of flight: Pitch, Roll and Yaw - They are controlled by Elevator, Aileron and
Rudder respectively.
- Pitching moments is twisting force caused by lift and thrust and drag.
- Rolling moments is twisting force caused by uneven lift from the wings.
- Yawing moment is twisting forcecaused by airflow over the horizontal stabilizer.

Lift on Turning• Why do we increase lift on
turning?
• Lift is generated perpendicular to the flight path
• Weight is always pointingto the ground
• So we have to increase lift to compensate the Load factor.

Aerofoil Section- Air is separated in the leading edge - Air travelling above and below merges at the same time
- Pressure above the wing reduced due to increased speed of air molecule.
- Pressure below the wing also reduced but not as much as that above the wing.
- So Lift is generated!
http://hk.vatsea.net (+852) 35947770VATSIM Hong Kong
What is Lift?- Acts perpendicular to relative air flow (R.A.F.)(Usually opposite to flight direction)
- What affects Lift?
- Velocity of aircraft (Airspeed) - Air density (Temperature and Pressure at current altitude) - Surface area of the wing (Flaps and Slats)
- Angle of attack (Increase Pitch) (Pitch Angle =/= AOA)
http://hk.vatsea.net (+852) 35947770VATSIM Hong Kong
Angle of Attack (AOA)- Angle between the chord lineand the relative airflow
- Chord line : straight line from the leading edge to the trailing edge
- As AOA increase, lift increaseuntil Critical AOA(16°) isreached
- When AOA exceed C. AOA,
- Airflow detached from thewing and become turbulent
STALL!
http://hk.vatsea.net (+852) 35947770VATSIM Hong Kong
Accelerated Stall- When aircraft is turning/ pulling up from a dive,the load factor will be higher than 1G (as in what we have calculated.) - The stall speed will be higher than normal stall speed (which refers to 1G) - If we are turning 60° bank, the stall speed will be: 135 X sqrt(2) = 191 kts!

IAS, TAS and GSIAS = Indicated Air Speed- Is the "speed" which the instrument told
you- Is important to flight performances (Lift,
Stall, etc.)- May not be equal to the speed of the
aircraft relative to the air TAS = True Air Speed - Is the speed of the aircraft
relative to the air GS = Ground Speed- Is the speed of the aircraft
relative to the ground at sea level
http://hk.vatsea.net (+852) 35947770VATSIM Hong Kong
IAS and TASIAS- Is measured by Pitot tube, which is obtained by
- Measuring the differences between dynamic (air ramming from the front) and static pressure (pressure in still air)
Dynamic pressure: - So, for the same IAS, higher the altitude, less the air density
and thus higher the TAS
=air density =speed of the air molecules, i.e.(TAS)
http://hk.vatsea.net (+852) 35947770VATSIM Hong Kong
IAS and TAS
High Altitude, Low Air DensityIAS = 100ktsP= 0.5 , TAS =141kts
Low Altitude, High Air Density IAS = 100kts P = 1, TAS=100kts
http://hk.vatsea.net (+852) 35947770VATSIM Hong Kong
IAS and TAS
Rules of Thumb: Increase your IAS at from MSL by 2% (or 1.8%) per 1000ft increase to obtain the Gross TAS:

Altimeter
Altimeter will display Altitude when set to appropriate pressure setting:
- QNH
- Altimeter ( FAA )
- QFE
- QNE
http://hk.vatsea.net (+852) 35947770VATSIM Hong Kong
Altimeter
- Aerodrome air pressure keep changes
- Altimeter shows your and use sea level air pressure as reference and indicates altitude from sea level (QNH / Inches)
- Altimeter can use aerodrome elevation as reference (QFE)
http://hk.vatsea.net (+852) 35947770VATSIM Hong Kong
Altimeter - After Transition Altitude,
altimeter will use QNE pressure as reference
- QNE = 1013mb / 29.92 in
- When aircraft passed Transition Level, local QNH will be used again

GMT
-Full name: Greenwich Mean Time
- Mean solar time at The Royal Observatory Greenwich
- It is commonly used in practice to refer to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) when this is viewed as a time zone
- Now, GMT was replaced as the international time reference by Coordinated Universal Time
http://hk.vatsea.net (+852) 35947770VATSIM Hong Kong
UTC
- Full name: Universal Time, Coordinated
- Based on Time Standard (International Atomic Time) with leap second added at irregular intervals to compensate for the Earth ‘s slowing rotation
- Denoted by letter “Z”
- Does not change with a change of seasons
- UT1 at The Royal Observatory Greenwich
- 1 UTC day = 86,400 SI seco
http://hk.vatsea.net (+852) 35947770VATSIM Hong Kong
Time zone
- Time zone is a region of the earth that has uniform standard time.
- Time Zone is usually differ from UTC by an integral number time of hours.
- Some Time Zones are differ by an integer number of half hours or quarter-hours.
Example :Hong Kong : UTC+8Iran : UTC+3:30
http://hk.vatsea.net (+852) 35947770VATSIM Hong Kong
Zulu Time
Zulu Time • Universal standard same as UTC • Denoted by letter “Z”
Why do we use Zulu time ?• Ensure all pilot are using same Clock frame• Avoid confusion when flying between time zones

http://hk.vatsea.net (+852) 35947770VATSIM Hong Kong
Stabilizer- Horizontal Stabilizer was located at
the back of the aircraft
- Helping pilot to performance yaw motion
- Elevators controls pitch motion
- However pilots can hold the elevator degree by moving pitch trim, but they were separated

Pitot Tubes
- Pitot Tubes are located under or near cockpit windows
- Pitot Tubes are divided to Probes and Static
- Both of them are measuring essential performance reading
- Two separated sets of tube are for Cap + F/O reading
http://hk.vatsea.net (+852) 35947770VATSIM Hong Kong
Pitot Tubes and Static Ports - Pitot TubesMeasure Dynamic Pressure (Air ramming from the front)Airspeed reading increase while air being inserted into probes.
- Static Ports Measures Static Pressure (Pressure of still air)
- Alt. reading increase while pressure decrease
- Airspeed is calculated by measuring the differential pressure from Pitot and Static.
http://hk.vatsea.net (+852) 35947770VATSIM Hong Kong
Pitot Tubes
- Essential performance readingSpeed and Altitudelocated under or near cockpit windows
- Probes include Pitot Probes, Angle of attack probes, Total air temperature probes
-Must be heated to prevent icing and Instrument failure
http://hk.vatsea.net (+852) 35947770VATSIM Hong Kong
Wingspan
- Wingspan means the area from left wingtip to right wingtip
- all lift are generated by wings
- adding winglet can increase wingspan
- Distance of Wright Brothers first flight are equals to Boeing 747-400 wingspan
http://hk.vatsea.net (+852) 35947770VATSIM Hong Kong
Winglets
- Winglets were introduced to reduce wake turbulence generated by wings
- Winglets guided and “collected” wake turbulence to the edge of winglet rather than letting them flowing around
- Thay can reduce drag to save fuel and minimize takeoff separation
http://hk.vatsea.net (+852) 35947770VATSIM Hong Kong
Winglets- Winglets were first introduced on
Learjet 28 in 1977
- More stream line winglet were introduced on Boeing 737NG
- However Boeing 777-300 cannot equip any winglet because of wingspan size
- It inspirited technician create raked wingtip to replace winglet 20 year after coming with Boeing 787
http://hk.vatsea.net (+852) 35947770VATSIM Hong Kong
Hydraulics- Hydraulics are power to control
those control surfaces
- Wires are directly connected between control yoke to control surfaces on small planes, however pilots are not able to control them because of great air pressure and weight on control surfaces.
- Only Pitch Trim is powered by electrical
http://hk.vatsea.net (+852) 35947770VATSIM Hong Kong
Engine- Nowadays aircraft are powered by Turbojet / Turbofan / Turboprops
- Jet engines on Boeing 737NG called CFM56- 7 series, which also appear on other aircrafts
- Like other “big” jets, high bypass engine are used on Boeing 737-800. Which means these engines works more efficient
http://hk.vatsea.net (+852) 35947770VATSIM Hong Kong
Engines- CFM56-7 series engines on
Boeing737NG can provide 18500-26300LB of trust each. Engines on B738 can totally provide 48400LB of trust.
- Unlike other aircraft, engine nacelles of Boeing 737NG are oval shape because of ground clearance.
http://hk.vatsea.net (+852) 35947770VATSIM Hong Kong
How does jet engine works- Jet engine are formed by
different essential parts
- Air will be compressed by the engine. Fuel burning inside the jet engine will heat and enlarge air inside the engine.
- Finally these air will push forward the plane, thrust created.
