Default Simple question...or is it?

ElectRick


I believe that your perspective is entirly accurate with the way most pilots and designers think out their effect and exactly how I think of it!! I would like to add that most , if not all full ,scale planes are designed to climb when power is added. This is so , in the event of elevator engine failure the planes altitude can be controlled by adding or taking out power. I believed this is achieved thru the wings positive incidence angle and engine upthrust. Also, which is kinda cool, when I got my private licence we practiced left and right turns using the doors only, works pretty well but I hope I would never have to land that way! - Brian
