Across
- 1. the moving parts of the horizontal stabilizer ther pitch the airplane nose up or down
- 3. how far ahead the pilot can see
- 8. a force created by the engine that give the airplane forward motion
- 10. the instrument that shows the speed of the airplane
- 13. to follow a course to reach a destination
- 14. a collection of instruments critical for the operation of the airplane
- 15. Nautical miles per hour
- 19. as the speed of moving air increases, the air pressure decreases
- 23. What force pulls downward on the plane
- 24. what is the highest altitude the airplane is capable of flying called
- 25. What instrument shows engine speed
Down
- 2. the instrument that shows how fast the airplane climbs or descends
- 4. What are the moving panels near each wing tip that bank or roll the plane
- 5. this is controlled by moving the ailerons, resulting in one wing going up and the other down
- 6. the maneuver in which the airplane's nose is up slightly, speed is decreased for landing, and the aircraft is positioned for touchdown
- 7. the control that changes the engine speed
- 9. to slowly drive the plane on the ground
- 11. the steering of the nose either left or right
- 12. What turns on the airplane
- 16. a navigational instrument used by pilots to determine direction
- 17. What instrument shows how high the airplane is flying
- 18. the moving of the nose up or down
- 20. An upward force that acts against gravity because of low air pressure created above the surface of an airplane's wing is
- 21. This force will slow the forward movement of an airplane through the air
- 22. the instrument that shows when the airplane is level, banked, climbing, or descending
