91Micro air vehicle — Naval Air Weapons Station China Lake, California A Micro Air Vehicle (MAV) flies over a simulated combat area during an operational test flight. The MAV is in the operational test phase with military Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) teams to… …
92Airspeed — is the speed of an aircraft relative to the air. There are several different measures of airspeed: indicated airspeed, calibrated airspeed, equivalent airspeed and true airspeed.It is measured within the flying aircraft with an airspeed indicator …
93Banked turn — A banked turn is the term used to describe a car riding along a circle with inclined edges. The angle at which a turn is banked refers to the angle of incline of the given path. The benefit of such a structure is that there are forces other than… …
94David S. Lewis, Jr. — David Sloan Lewis, Jr., (July 6, 1917 December 15, 2003), was a major force in the aerospace and defense industry for four decades. His management skills were notable for their breadth, ranging over military and commercial aviation, space… …
95Coordinated flight — Pilot s view of a Schempp Hirth Janus C glider. The yaw string (red wool) on the canopy and the turn and bank indicator (top center of the instrument panel) both show the glider is not in coordinated flight. The glider is slipping slightly nose… …
96Supersonic — For other uses see Supersonic .The term supersonic is used to define a speed that is over the speed of sound (Mach 1). At a typical temperature like 21 °C (70 °F), the threshold value required for an object to be traveling at a supersonic speed… …
97Centrifugal compressor — Centrifugal compressors, sometimes termed radial compressors, are a sub class of dynamic axisymmetric work absorbing turbomachinery.[1] Centrifugal impeller with a highly polished surface likely to improve performance …
