Airplane Essays Samples That Help You Write Better, Faster & with Gusto

Introduction

The concept of high speed, just like many other things in life is not absolute. Gabrielli and Von Karman pointed out the difficulty of measuring the value of speed for a considerable number of airborne and ground systems (1950). One result of their analysis was a chart on speed versus power established in a double logarithm plot (the Gabrielli-von Karman chart). It was found that all systems lie above this curve and at their most efficient points does the vehicles touch this line. More recently, Lorentz developed a general power scaling technique for airplanes and Helicopters. Manufacturers quote a Continue reading...

Aviation History

It is nice to know we have multiple ways of transportation when it comes to traveling. Either by train, boat, car, bus, or airplane we know there is a captain in charge and responsible of every passenger’s safety. When traveling by airplane before take-off, passengers always hear an announcement similar to this, “Hello, this is your captain speaking.” How many of those captains’ voices making that announcement have belonged to a woman? Women make up approximately 5% of the 53,000 members in the Air Line Pilots Association. This figure represents pilots serving at regional and major airlines Continue reading...

Technology is indeed becoming important and significant in the handling of many operations. The article, in its point that pilots should be replaced by robots is interesting. It will be interesting to have such machine pilots but there are many questions that will come up as a result of the development. One issue of concern is the trust from the passengers. Will there be trust to board an aircraft which is operated by machines? People tend to trust situations where they are being served and directed by other people. Having machine pilots will lead to loss of trust and Continue reading...

Homework 7: Logs, Decibels and pH

1. Decibels
Decibels are a measurement of sound intensity. The logarithmic relationship between intensity of a sound and sound level in decibels is given by the following formula:
L = 10 * log (I/Io)
L is the sound level in decibels, I is the intensity of the sound, and Io is the intensity of the softest sound that can be heard by humans.
I/Io is a ratio. This ratio is how many times louder a sound is than the softest audible sound. For this activity, we will only consider the ratio and not the individual pieces of the ratio.
Convert the Continue reading...

The texts in Section A focus on the problems of airport security after the terrorist attack in New York on September 11, 2001. 1. Write a summary of Spread Your Legs and Smile in no more than 150 words.
The constant paranoia over terrorist threats has led to more stringent security at airports in the USA. Not only does one have to arrive several hours early to the airport, but the lines are never ending. The way TSA works is that the passenger has very little liberty nowadays to speak about what is happening. Almost all extra garments, shoes, Continue reading...

There are many elements of art. For example, one can easily look into and appreciate art just by looking at the size of an object, its color, its edges, or in this case, the patterns and textures that have been used in its creation. The truth is, in reality, each person or a group of people has a unique way of appreciating art. The objective of this paper is to discuss how patterns and textures affect our everyday life and how I, as the author, gets to appreciate art forms or even architectural works simply by looking at the Continue reading...

POEM

The poem The Brothers was the longest narrative consists of 40 pages. Many Americans are writing about the airplane, this obsessive summarization of honoring the tradition, the names of their ancestors and the recording of rituals of their achievements, serves as biblical purpose, Continue reading...

“Out of Africa,” by Isak Dinesen, is a grand, sweeping, epic tale of one woman’s fully coming of age in a land that, by rights, might have felt foreign to her, but into which she fits, as she says in her own words, “Here I am, where I ought to be.”(Dinesen 4). The book is autobiographical, but she has left out of it many aspects that one might have expected her to tell, such the details of her love affairs with the Baron Bror Blixen (to whom she was married) and with Denys Finch-Hatton, and focused instead Continue reading...
