Weights established for numerous items involved in weight and balance computations. These weights should not be used if actual weights are available.
Industry:Aviation
A valve in the instrument static air system that supplies reference air pressure to the altimeter, airspeed indicator, and vertical speed indicator if the normal static pickup should become clogged or iced over.
Industry:Aviation
A model of standard variation of pressure and temperature.
Industry:Aviation
The aerodynamic pitching moments required to return the aircraft to the equilibrium angle of attack.
Industry:Aviation
A flight instrument that indicates altitude by sensing pressure changes.
Industry:Aviation
The estimation of an intermediate value of a quantity that falls between marked values in a series. Example: In a measurement of length, with a rule that is marked in eighths of an inch, the value falls between 3/8 inch and 1/2 inch. The estimated (interpolated) value might then be said to be 7/16 inch.
Industry:Aviation
Pressure of air that is still or not moving, measured perpendicular to the surface of the aircraft.
Industry:Aviation
Station pressure (the barometric pressure at the location the reading is taken) which has been corrected for the height of the station above sea level.
Industry:Aviation
The initial tendency an aircraft displays when disturbed from a state of equilibrium.
