British aircraft

The English word for plane is plane, and its pronunciation is English【ple? Beauty [ple? n]?

Expansion: An airplane is a vehicle that is driven by an engine and can fly in the atmosphere. Widely used in military and civilian fields. The history of airplanes can be traced back to the beginning of 1903, when the Wright brothers invented the first airplane. The name of the plane was "1 Aircraft", and it flew for 12 seconds, with a certain distance. With the development of science and technology and revolutionary innovation, airplanes have become one of the indispensable means of transportation in modern society.

The types of aircraft can be divided into military aircraft and civil aircraft according to their uses. Military aircraft include fighters, bombers, transport planes and reconnaissance planes. There are three main types of civil aircraft: commercial aviation, general aviation and private flight. With the development of global economy, the growth of airline network and the increase of tourism demand, the aviation industry has risen rapidly and become an important part of modern transportation.

The operation principle of aircraft depends on the combination of airframe structure, airframe design and aerodynamic principle. According to Newton's third law-action equals reaction, the engine provides thrust to push the aircraft wing to generate lift. At the same time, relying on various advanced electronic instruments of the aircraft, accurate air navigation and safe flight are realized through the flight control system.

Although aircraft is a widely used means of transportation in modern society, there are also some safety problems in the use process, such as aircraft accidents, mechanical failures, bad weather, etc., which bring great pressure and risks to pilots and passengers. Therefore, in the process of engineering design and use, it is very important to operate in strict accordance with relevant regulations and standards, regularly overhaul aircraft and maintain equipment, and at the same time conduct training in safety and emergency handling.
