123pitching moment coefficient — is based on the pitching moment deriving from the distribution of aerodynamic forces acting on the vehicle …
124rolling moment coefficient — is based on the rolling moment deriving from the distribution of aerodynamic forces acting on the vehicle …
125yawing moment coefficient — is based on the yawing moment deriving from the distribution of aerodynamic forces acting on the vehicle …
126aerodyne — A heavier than air vehicle that can sustain its flight in air principally by self generated aerodynamic forces and possibly by thrust produced by the engine. Aircraft and helicopters are two types of aerodynes …
127aileron booster — The term refers to a hydrobooster for the operation of ailerons. The aileron booster is used in power controlled aircraft. Aileron boosters minimize the force required to move the ailerons, and, except for power assisted controls, there is no… …
128antibalance tab — A tab on a control surface that moves in the same direction as the control surface to make it more difficult to move it in an airstream. This results in generation of large aerodynamic forces, which makes it harder to move control surfaces.… …
