南京航空航天大学 专业英语阅读 复习资料

Unit 1

What does the basic airplane consist of？

A fuselage, wings, an empennage, wheels and engines. What is the empennage, composed of？ Vertical stabilizer. Horizontal stabilizer. What are the 3 main flight control？ Ailerons, elevator, rudder.

What is the attitude of the aircraft？

The attitude is the position in flight relative to the earth. The elevator controls.

Pitching of the aircraft up to down.

The elevator is operated from the cockpit

With push-and-pull movements of the controls column

(wheel).

The ailerons control rolling of the airplane.

The ailerons are operated by left-right movements of the

control column(wheel). The rudder controls

The yawing of the aircraft left or right.

The rudder is operated by pressing the base of the rudder

pedals.

Pitot-static system operates instruments concerning air

speed and altitude.

Gyroscopes operate instruments concerning attitude,

direction and turning.

The empennage helps to stabilize the flight of the plane

Unit 2

The altimeter tells the pilot how high he is flying

Unit 3

What is flight planning？

The pilot in command shall, before beginning a flight,

familiarize himself with all available information concerning that flight.

Unit 4

To turn left or right, the flight controls including the

ailerons, the elevator, and the rudder will all be involved, but the function of ailerons is the Unit 5 Unit 6

What should the pilot do if one engine fails after V1？ Go on taking off, circle the airport and request landing The speed at which actual take off occurs is VR.

Unit 7

Where will the aircraft be stacked(堆叠) until its turn

comes to land？ At the holding point

Unit 8

The landing gear is the assembly that supports the aircraft

during landing or while it is resting or moving about on the ground

The shock struts of the landing gear absorb the shock of

landing and taxing.

The gear-retraction mechanism helps the landing gear

attach to the aircraft structure and enables the gear to extend and retract.

Brakes; enable the aircraft to be slowed or stopped during

movement on the ground.

The advantages of the tricycles gear are; it allows more

forceful application of the brakes for higher landing speeds without nosing over.

---it permits (允许)better visibility for the pilot

during landing.

---it prevents aircraft ground-looping.

What safety devices does the landing gear have？ Mechanical down locks, safety switches, ground locks.

Unit 9

What are the 2 common ways to store fuel to supply the

needs of the airport.

Takers and fuel farm (network of hydrants)

Consumption of fuel depends on the type of aircraft s Speed of aircraft Altitude

Holding on the stack

Unit 10

The pump draws fluid from the reservoir and expels it to

the hydraulic system in the event of a malfunction of the pressure regulator;the relief valve will release any pressure above that maintained by the system pressure regulator.

Hydraulic system operates landing gears, wing flaps, slats,

speed and wheel brakes, nose wheel steering and primary flight control surfaces

Kicked-out Kicked-in

Unit 11

Air conditioning system
