If you are a regular flier, then you have most likely already experienced the many benefits that both short and long-distance flying have to offer. Although there are those who would really like flying for extended periods of time, the majority of people do not find long-haul flights to be at all pleasurable. You stand in lengthy lines, go through an unending number of security checks, and are forced to sit in close quarters with two individuals for a period of time that you would typically do everything possible to avoid. Therefore, many people choose shorter flight distances; nevertheless, the ... Read More

One of the significant discussions that have been on the rise is whether the terms host and hostess can be used in place of each other. The word Jody generally has varied applications and makes distinguishing them challenging.One example we can see here is event management, considered a professional work genre. Among the other delegates, the hosts play an essential role in the success of both big and small events. The host's professionalism depends on the parties, and there are special training schools to establish oneself as the host or hostess.However, when we take a deeper look at each of ... Read More

The answer to this question is YES !!Every aircraft has a specified takeoff weight which is the maximum weight certified for an aircraft to make it airworthy. Before each flight, the Pilots and the safety crew calculate the maximum permissible weight based on many key factors like runway length, weather conditions, luggage capacity, number of seats in the place etc., and decide upon the quantity of fuel to be filled in.Due to so many factors, the commercial planes almost refuel for each and every flight.

All things that fly using wings need air. Moving air has a force that will lift kites, airplanes, and balloons up and down. An aircraft experiences four basic forces, they areLift: The upward force acting on the aircraft which helps the airplane to fly.Drag: The backward force caused by the resistance of air flow.Thrust: The forward force produced by the engines of the aircraftWeight: The body and cargo weight of the aircraft acting in a downward direction.An aircraft flies when the lift force exceeds the weight of the aircraft. For this to happen the aircraft must move at high velocities. ... Read More

Both scramjet and Ramjet are types of jet engines. A ramjet is an air breathing jet engine which is usually associated with supersonic transport. Ramjets can start at supersonic speeds only, so as a result they cannot be started at zero velocity and cannot produce thrust as there is a lack of airspeed.Hence assisted take off flights or rockets are needed to or accelerate it to a supersonic speed from which it starts producing thrust. This makes ramjet engine to be efficient only at supersonic speeds as it can accelerate to speeds of about Mach 6. Ramjet has revolutionized Rocket ... Read More

A turbojet engine is used in Aircraft. These are air-breathing engines which suck in air from the atmosphere for combustion. It has various components like inlet, compressor, combustion chamber, turbines, and nozzle. Air is drawn into the turbojet engine, compressed, mixed with fuel, and burned continuously.The exhaust product of this burning operates the turbine for the compressor, producing thrust which propels the aircraft. Turboprops are used in smaller and slow-paced air crafts as turbojets are not efficient at low speeds whereas turbofans have better specific fuel consumption than the turbojet. These engines are generally installed below the wings or near ... Read More

In the present day fast-forward culture, everything should happen at jet speed. People do businesses across continents and Airplanes are a very convenient way to travel. But many people are not delighted to travel above 35, 000 feet up in the air.How High can a Plane FlyEvery airplane has a certified maximum altitude. The highest certified altitude of an airliner was Concorde's 60, 000 feet. Many of the corporate jets can fly at 51, 000 feet.Regular passenger international flights fly between 35000 to 42000 feet. That is considered as optimum height. "Each individual aircraft has an optimum altitude (for minimum ... Read More
