Across
- 4. force causing plane to move forward
- 5. Air particles rubbing against parts of the airplane
- 7. changes roll by creating more lift one wing
- 8. control equipment and pilots are here
- 10. spoils the lift by increasing drag for landing
- 13. changes pitch and is movable/adjustable
- 15. holds the plane together and carries the payload
- 16. important for aerodynamics and houses the aircraft’s radar
- 18. generates lift and airfoil shaped
- 19. Caused by the shape of the object moving through the air
- 20. This force always acts straight down
Down
- 1. generates drag and improves the fuel economy
- 2. STABILIZER Stabilizes yaw and keeps aircraft aligned with flight direction
- 3. Changes yaw and is an adjustable and movable component
- 6. ENGINE generates thrust using propellers
- 9. Airflow around one part of the aircraft mixes with airflow around another part
- 11. The force acting parallel to direction of flight but opposite direction
- 12. STABILIZER Controls pitch and has an upward force balancing airplane
- 14. increases lift of attack and is movable/adjustable
- 15. Increases lift for take off or drag for landing
- 17. The force that works against gravity
