Is it safe to fly in typhoon weather?

It is not safe to fly in typhoon weather.

Typhoons usually bring extreme weather conditions such as strong winds and heavy rains, which will bring difficulties to aircraft flight. Especially when taking off and landing, the aircraft needs to fly under the influence of strong crosswind and yaw wind, which may lead to aircraft jitter and unstable flight state. For small aircraft or low-flying aircraft, this effect will be more obvious.

In addition, the typhoon may also affect the airport itself, leading to the closure of runways and communications, cancellation or delay of flights, and passengers stranded at the airport. Therefore, airlines and airports need to pay close attention to the trend of typhoons and formulate relevant countermeasures to ensure flight safety and passenger rights. No matter the flight plan or the plane take-off, in this case, it is necessary to make appropriate adjustments and take into account the impact of the typhoon to ensure the safety and punctuality of the flight.

The flight principle of aircraft is briefly described as follows:

When the same mass of air passes through the upper and lower surfaces of the wing at the same time, different flow velocities will be formed up and down the wing. When the air passes through the upper surface of the wing, the speed is high and the pressure is low; When passing through the lower surface, the flow velocity is small and the pressure is high, so the plane will have an upward resultant force, that is, upward lift. Because of the lift, the plane can leave the ground and fly in the air. The faster the plane flies, the larger the wing area, and the greater the lift generated.

The direction of gravity is opposite to the lift. It is a downward force influenced by the gravity of the earth, which is influenced by the weight of the aircraft itself and the amount of fuel it carries. The pulling force urges the plane to fly forward in the air, and the engine power determines the pulling force. Generally speaking, the greater the output power of the engine, the greater the thrust generated and the faster the flight speed of the aircraft.
