The main reason why the landing gear of an airliner tilts is to make the aircraft more stable during takeoff and landing. The wheels on the landing gear are not parallel to the fuselage, but are set at an angle. This allows the aircraft to have a lower center of gravity and to be more […]

Can turbulence cause structural failure in airplanes?
Turbulence can cause structural failure in airplanes, but it is very rare. Airplanes are designed to withstand significant turbulence and are regularly maintained to ensure their structural integrity. However, severe turbulence can cause damage to an airplane and, in rare cases, result in structural failure. It is important to note that turbulence can also cause […]
Are anti-ice an option or mandatory when flying in cold weather and a high altitude? How serious of an issue is forgetting to turn anti-ice on?
Anti-icing systems are an option for aircraft, but they are typically mandatory in cold weather and high altitude conditions. This is because ice can form on an aircraft’s wings, tail, and other surfaces, which can greatly reduce the aircraft’s lift and cause it to stall or crash. Forgetting to turn anti-ice on is a very […]
Aircraft Recovery Process
When aircraft veers off or overruns the runway during landing or takeoff, this is called a runway excursion. After this happens, aircraft cannot operate independently. Therefore, it must be removed from the runway. That way, it doesn’t lead to long runway closure. Process of moving the aircraft from the incident area to repair area is […]
What does RAT MAN signify when it comes to the switch on an A320 aircraft?
Visit –https://hub.daddyssolutions.com/demo/debug1/blog/ for more interesting articles. The aircraft has two switches for manually extending the RAT, one on the hydraulics control panel and the other on the emergency electrical configuration panel, both found on the main overhead panel. The RAT is designed to automatically deploy when it detects a loss of two AC generators, resulting in […]

Fatal accident rate per million departures
Visit –https://hub.daddyssolutions.com/demo/debug1/blog/ for more interesting articles. All modern passenger airliners are incredibly safe as they have multiple redundancies and fail safes. Even the planes with the worst track records in history are somewhat safer than we think. Judging by the flight hours, neither aircraft has seen enough service to produce an accurate result for us to […]
Why Aircraft Radome repairs should be of highest standards to upkeep the airworthiness ?
Why Aircraft Radome repairs should be of highest standards to upkeep the airworthiness ? How a small paint patch repair can hinder weather radar functions ? ✔A radome is a Fairing whose primary purpose is to protect a radar antenna from various elements. ✔Physically, a radome should be strong enough to withstand the airloads & […]
A330 Fuel System
Source – Airbus The fuel system has different functions, which are: storage, venting and scavenge, engine feed, APU feed, main and trim transfers, refuel/defuel, jettison as an option, and the maintenance/test facilities. The fuel is stored in six tanks. In each wing, there are an outer and an inner tanks divided into two parts: the […]
