I - Introduction This article takes a comprehensive look into Pitot-static system blockages and failures. These typically affect the airspeed indicator (ASI), vertical speed indicator (VSI) and altimeter. They can also affect the autopilot auto-throttle and other equipment that relies on airspeed and altitude information. There have been several commercial flights, more recently Air France's flight 447, whose crash could have been due, in part, to Pitot-static system issues and pilot reaction. It is plausible that the pilot at the controls could have become confused with the erroneous instrument readings of the airspeed and have unknowingly flown the aircraft out of control resulting in the crash. The goal of this article is to help remove or reduce, through knowledge, the likelihood of at least this one link in the chain of problems that can lead to accidents.

    Air Data Computer 8EB3AAA1 DESCRIPTION AMETEK has designed a compact, solid state Air Data Computer for military applications. The Air Data Computer utilizes a digital signal processor for fast calculation and response of air data parameters. Silicon pressure transducers provide the static and Pitot pressure values and are easily replaced without calibration. The AMETEK Air Data Computer incorporates a unique power supply that allows the unit to operate through 5 second power interrupts when at any input voltage in its operating range. This ensures that critical air data parameters reach the cockpit and control systems under a FEATURES wide variety of conditions. 3 The MIL-STD-1553 interface 40 ms update rate Thirteen (13) different air data parameters are provided on the MIL-STD- 3 11-bit reported pressure 1553B interface and are calculated by the internal processor at a 40 ms rate. altitude interface 3 AOA and total temperature An 11-bit reported pressure altitude interface encoded per FAA order inputs 1010.51A is available for Identification Friend or Foe equipment. 3 Low weight: 2.29 lbs. 3 Small size: 6.81” x 6.0” x 2.5” 3 Low power: 1.5 watts 3 DO-178B level A software AEROSPACE & DEFENSE Air Data Computer 8EB3AAA1 SPECIFICATIONS PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS Air Data Parameters Power: DO-160, Section 16 Cat Z or MIL-STD-704A-F • ADC Altitude Rate Output (Hpp or dHp/dt) 5 second power Interruption immunity at any • True Airspeed Output (Vt) input voltage • Calibrated Airspeed Output (Vc) Power Consumption: 1.5 watts • Indicated Airspeed Output (IAS) Operating Temperature: -55°C to +71°C; 1/2 hour at +90°C • Mach Number Output (Mt) Weight: 2.29 lbs.

  • 16.00 Introduction to Aerospace and Design Problem Set #3 AIRCRAFT
    16.00 Introduction to Aerospace and Design Problem Set #3 AIRCRAFT PERFORMANCE FLIGHT SIMULATION LAB Note: You may work with one partner while actually flying the flight simulator and collecting data. Your write-up must be done individually. You can do this problem set at home or using one of the simulator computers. There are only a few simulator computers in the lab area, so not leave this problem to the last minute. To save time, please read through this handout completely before coming to the lab to fly the simulator. Objectives At the end of this problem set, you should be able to: • Take off and fly basic maneuvers using the flight simulator, and describe the relationships between the control yoke and the control surface movements on the aircraft. • Describe pitch - airspeed - vertical speed relationships in gliding performance. • Explain the difference between indicated and true airspeed. • Record and plot airspeed and vertical speed data from steady-state flight conditions. • Derive lift and drag coefficients based on empirical aircraft performance data. Discussion In this lab exercise, you will use Microsoft Flight Simulator 2000/2002 to become more familiar with aircraft control and performance. Also, you will use the flight simulator to collect aircraft performance data just as it is done for a real aircraft. From your data you will be able to deduce performance parameters such as the parasite drag coefficient and L/D ratio. Aircraft performance depends on the interplay of several variables: airspeed, power setting from the engine, pitch angle, vertical speed, angle of attack, and flight path angle.

  • SERVICE ALERT Avidyne Primary Flight Display {P/Ns: 700-00006-000,-001,-002,-003,-100}
    SA-08-001 12 February 2008 SERVICE ALERT Avidyne Primary Flight Display {P/Ns: 700-00006-000,-001,-002,-003,-100} This SERVICE ALERT communicates important safety information concerning aircraft equipped with certain Avidyne EXP5000 Primary Flight Displays (PFDs). BACKGROUND INFORMATION Avidyne has received a limited number of field reports of PFDs displaying incorrect altitude and airspeed information. None of these occurrences led to an accident or incident. These occurrences included incorrect display of information at system startup, including one or more of the following: • Altitude significantly in error when compared to field elevation with local barometric correction setting entered on PFD. • Altitude significantly in error when compared to backup altimeter with identical barometric correction settings on both. • Non-zero airspeed (inconsistent with high winds or propwash from a nearby airplane) indicated at system startup. • Altitude or airspeed indications that vary noticeably after startup under static conditions. • Erroneous airspeed indications in combination with erroneous attitude indications. • A steady or intermittent “red X” in place of the airspeed indicator, altimeter, VSI or attitude indicator. Aircraft exhibiting any of these incorrect indications should not be flown. In any case where an erroneous indication is present at system startup (without an identifiable external cause such as surface winds or propwash) and this indication subsequently returns to normal, the PFD should nonetheless be considered unreliable and the aircraft should not be flown. As a normal practice, all pilots should be vigilant in conducting proper preflight and in- flight checks of instrument accuracy, including: • Preflight check of the accuracy of both the primary and backup altimeter against known airfield elevation and against each other.

Prüfer: Prof. Dr.-Ing. Dieter Scholz, MSME 2. Prüfer: Prof. Dr.-Ing. Hans-Jürgen Flüh Fahrzeugtechnik Abstract This report gives an overview of methods for aircraft performance calculations. After explain- ing the necessary background and the International Standard Atmosphere, it deals with a com- plete mission of a generic twin engine jet transport aircraft, including the required reserves of a diversion. Every part of the mission is considered. This includes climb, cruise, descent and hold. Equations for determining significant parameters of all parts are derived and differences between idealized calculations (based on mathematical performance models) and real ones (based on aircraft flight test data) are explained. A computer program has been written as a macro in Lotus 1-2-3, with data obtained during flights. In the main report simple flowcharts are given to illustrate the methods used. The pro- gram results show the required fuel and the time for an airliner of a certain weight performing a mission with a certain range. In the appendix all data and the flowcharts

  • Unusual Attitudes and the Aerodynamics of Maneuvering Flight Author’S Note to Flightlab Students
    Unusual Attitudes and the Aerodynamics of Maneuvering Flight Author’s Note to Flightlab Students The collection of documents assembled here, under the general title “Unusual Attitudes and the Aerodynamics of Maneuvering Flight,” covers a lot of ground. That’s because unusual-attitude training is the perfect occasion for aerodynamics training, and in turn depends on aerodynamics training for success. I don’t expect a pilot new to the subject to absorb everything here in one gulp. That’s not necessary; in fact, it would be beyond the call of duty for most—aspiring test pilots aside. But do give the contents a quick initial pass, if only to get the measure of what’s available and how it’s organized. Your flights will be more productive if you know where to go in the texts for additional background. Before we fly together, I suggest that you read the section called “Axes and Derivatives.” This will introduce you to the concept of the velocity vector and to the basic aircraft response modes. If you pick up a head of steam, go on to read “Two-Dimensional Aerodynamics.” This is mostly about how pressure patterns form over the surface of a wing during the generation of lift, and begins to suggest how changes in those patterns, visible to us through our wing tufts, affect control. If you catch any typos, or statements that you think are either unclear or simply preposterous, please let me know. Thanks.
