Aircraft is an aircraft that is heavier than air, fixed wing, and can fly on his own. In general, the term is often also called the aircraft with aircraft or aircraft or aircraft with the objective definition quite the same as a vehicle capable of flying in the atmosphere or the air . But in the world of aviation , the terms of different aircraft with aircraft , aircraft term is much broader sense because it has included airplanes and helicopters .
Figures .
Anthony Fokker (1890-1939) who was called Tony was born in Blitar, East Java, in April 1890 . At the age of 20 years ( 1910) , Tony made his first aircraft , named Spin . It was the first airplane made in the Netherlands . In 1912 , Tony founded the new company Fokker Aeroplan in Berlin City , which later moved to the city of Schwerin , Germany .
History .
Aircraft heavier than air was first flown by the Wright Brothers ( Orville Wright and Wilbur Wright ) by using its own aircraft design called the Flyer , which was launched in 1903 in the United States . In addition to the Wright brothers , there were several other aircraft inventor who invented the airplane , among others, Samuel F Cody is doing the action on the field Fanborough , England in 1910. As for the aircraft that is lighter than the air already flown away before. S the first time by using a hot air balloon found a French nationality and named Joseph Montgolfier Montgolfier Etiene occurred in 1782 , then refined the German Ferdinand von Zeppelin named by modifying the cigar -shaped balloon which is used to carry passengers and goods in 1900 . In subsequent years to master Zeppelin air freight to ship disaster Zeppelin on trans - Atlantic trip in New Jersey in 1936 that marked the end of an era Zeppelin though still used before the Second World War . After the Wright era , many aircraft are modified both in design , shape and aircraft engines to meet the needs of air transportation . Larger commercial aircraft made in 1949 named Bristol Brabazon . Until now the world's largest passenger aircraft made by Airbus industrie from Europe to the A380 .Categories and classification of aircraft .
Heavier than air .
Kirby Chambliss Zivko Edge 540 uses , Zivko Aeronautics in the Red Bull Air Race World Championship Perth 2006Aircraft heavier than air called aerodin , which fall into this category are the autogiro , helicopters , and airplanes girokopter / fixed wing aircraft . Fixed wing aircraft generally use a combustion engine in which a piston engine (the propeller) or turbine engines ( jet or turboprop ) to produce thrust that moves the plane, and air movement in the wings generate thrust upward , which makes this aircraft can fly . As an exception , there is also a fixed wing aircraft that do not use machines , eg gliders , which only uses the force of gravity and the flow of hot air . Helicopter and autogiro using machines and rotating wings to produce thrust upward , and helicopters also use the machine to produce forward thrust .
Lighter than air .
Aircraft lighter than air called aerostat , which fall into this category are the balloon and airship . Aerostat use buoyancy to fly in the air , like a ship that is used to float on the water . These aircraft generally use a gas such as helium , hydrogen , or hot air to generate buoyancy is . The difference with the blimp blimp airship is more to windward , while the airship has a propulsion system to boost forward and control systems . So , thank you for reading this article .
