Air acting as a fluid
What is newton's first law relating to air?
Air in motion tends to stay in motion
As airspeed increases, pressure...
decreases
What is an airfoil
Curved surface designed to generate lift
What is the main summer training camp in Ontario
Blackdown CTC
What is inertia
The tendency of an object to remain unchanged unless a force is inflicted on it
What is the pressure like on the top and bottom sides of the wings
Low pressure on top, high pressure on bottom
What is angle of attack
The angle between the chord line and the relative airflow
Who are the 6 warrant officers at 540
WO2 Butler, Kelly, Merrit-Murrell, Jham, Uzoka, Pignatiello
How do the other 2 of newton's laws relate to air
Must apply force to change air's motion, aircraft wing develops equal and opposite reaction
What are two properties that air can have
Pressure and speed
How is the wing sloped
Sloped with leading edge slightly higher than trailing edge
What are the aims of the air cadet program
Develop good citizenship and leadership, promote physical fitness, promote interest in the CAF and the air force
When does a wing stall (Transport Canada GLIDE exam question)
When it reaches the critical angle of attack
