The document discusses the history and development of a new technology called blockchain. Blockchain first emerged with bitcoin, using cryptography to allow transactions to be securely recorded and verified across a decentralized network. It has since inspired new applications like smart contracts that could have significant impacts on business processes and transactions involving digital records and assets.
Los hermanos Cesar, Hector y Edith Boero fundaron Aero Talleres Boero SRL en 1956 en Morteros, Córdoba, para reparar aviones. En 1958 diseñaron su primer avión, el Aero Boero 95. Tras años de pruebas, obtuvieron la certificación en 1962 e iniciaron la producción. En 1975 se transformaron en Aero Boero SA. En 1987 ganaron un contrato del gobierno brasileño para vender aviones, lo que les permitió expandirse a nivel internacional.
The document provides checklists for normal operations of a Cessna 172S Skyhawk, including preflight, engine starting, taxiing, takeoff, climb, cruise, descent, landing, shutdown and securing the aircraft. Emergency checklists are also included for events such as engine failure during takeoff, in flight, or after landing, as well as procedures for electrical and engine fires.
Flight Manuals and other documents - Chapter 08junio_oliveira
This document discusses flight manuals and other required aircraft documents. It covers airplane flight manuals (AFM), the pilot's operating handbook (POH), and documents related to ownership, airworthiness, maintenance, and operating an aircraft with inoperative equipment. The AFM and POH are approved manuals specific to an aircraft that provide operating limitations and procedures. Other documents include the aircraft owner/information manual and documents required for ownership and airworthiness.
This document discusses flight instruments that utilize the pitot-static system, including the airspeed indicator, altimeter, and vertical speed indicator. It explains that the pitot tube measures total pressure, while the static ports measure ambient pressure, and the difference between these pressures drives the readings on the instruments. It also discusses factors like non-standard temperature and pressure that can introduce errors, and the importance of setting the correct altimeter setting to compensate for these errors and obtain an accurate altitude reading.

This chapter discusses aircraft engine and propeller systems. It covers reciprocating engines, including their components and operating cycles. Reciprocating engines can be spark ignition or compression ignition, and have different cylinder arrangements. The chapter describes fixed-pitch and adjustable pitch propellers, and how their blade angles change from hub to tip. It also discusses how engine RPM relates to aircraft performance.
This document discusses the four main aerodynamic forces that act on aircraft in flight: thrust, drag, lift, and weight. It describes each force and how they are balanced to achieve steady level flight or other maneuvers like climbs or glides. It also discusses the aerodynamic concepts of angle of attack, parasite drag, induced drag, and how aircraft designers aim to reduce different types of drag.
Flight controls allow pilots to control the forces of flight and maneuver aircraft. This chapter focuses on basic flight control systems, from early mechanical systems to modern fly-by-wire designs. It describes the primary flight controls - ailerons, elevators, and rudders - and how they control roll, pitch, and yaw respectively. Adverse yaw created by ailerons is also discussed, as are methods to reduce it like differential ailerons. The chapter provides examples of different flight control configurations for various aircraft types.
This chapter discusses the principles of flight, including:
1) It examines the fundamental physical laws governing the forces acting on an aircraft in flight, and how pilots must understand these natural laws to control aircraft.
2) It describes the structure of the atmosphere, including its composition of gases and how air density decreases with altitude.
3) It discusses atmospheric pressure and how instruments like the altimeter are affected by changes in pressure. The standard atmosphere is used as a reference point for these measurements.
This chapter provides an overview of aircraft structure and components. It defines key terms like fuselage, wings, empennage, landing gear, and powerplant. It describes basic aerodynamic concepts like thrust, lift, weight, and drag. It explains how control surfaces like ailerons, elevators, and rudders control the aircraft's pitch, roll, and yaw. It briefly discusses different types of aircraft construction materials and methods.
This document provides a brief history of flight from early attempts to fly like birds to the development of modern aviation. Some key points:
- Early attempts at human flight involved attaching wings to the body but lacked propulsion. Balloons provided lift but no control.
- Important early pioneers included Cayley, Lilienthal, and the Wright brothers, who achieved the first powered, controlled flight in 1903.
- Commercial aviation began in 1914 with the first scheduled passenger flight between St. Petersburg and Tampa, Florida.
- The federal government began regulating aviation with the Air Commerce Act of 1926 and the Civil Aeronautics Act of 1938, which established the FAA's predecessors to regulate pilots,
CAP 637 provides guidance on visual aids for pilots and personnel at aerodromes in the UK. It describes various aeronautical ground lighting systems used, including approach lighting, runway lighting, and precision approach path indicators. Lights are generally white but may be other colors like red, yellow, blue to provide warnings or designate areas like displaced thresholds, stopways, and taxiway exits. The intensity and positioning of lights are intended to safely guide aircraft at night and in low visibility conditions.
