Does the typhoon affect the flight of the plane?

Typhoon has an effect on the flight of aircraft.

Typhoon weather will affect flights. For safety reasons, airlines will adjust flights in areas affected by typhoons according to their path and development, which may cause flight delays or even cancel flights. In addition, typhoon weather will also affect aircraft, such as bumps, lightning strikes, hail, low visibility, wind direction changes and so on.

Generally, after a typhoon of magnitude 6 or above, the airport will be closed. This is because when the plane encounters a typhoon, the balance of the plane will be weakened, which will lead to the deviation of the route and may also lead to the damage of the plane. China's laws also stipulate that if the meteorological conditions are lower than the minimum meteorological conditions for the captain's flight and the meteorological conditions endanger the safety of this flight, it is not allowed to take off.

Before the flight, the pilot-in-command shall conduct necessary inspections on the civil aircraft; No take-off is allowed without inspection. The pilot-in-command has the right to refuse to take off if he finds that the civil aircraft, airport and meteorological conditions do not meet the requirements and cannot ensure flight safety.

Classification of civil aircraft

1, divided by aircraft use: there are civil aviation aircraft and national aviation aircraft, and national aviation aircraft refers to aircraft used by the army, police and customs; Civil aircraft mainly refers to civil aircraft and helicopters. Civil aircraft can be divided into three types according to the purpose of the aircraft. First, the whole passenger plane is manned in the main cabin and loaded in the lower cabin; Second, all cargo planes, the main cabin and the lower cabin are fully loaded; The third type is mixed loading of passengers and goods. The passenger seat is in front of the main cabin, the goods are in the back and the goods are in the lower cabin.

2. According to the structure of the aircraft: according to the number of wings, the aircraft can be divided into monoplane, biplane and multi-winged; Monoplane can also be subdivided into upper monoplane, middle monoplane and lower monoplane. According to the plane shape of the wing, the aircraft can be divided into straight wing aircraft, trapezoidal wing aircraft, swept wing aircraft, delta wing aircraft, variable swept wing aircraft, forward swept wing aircraft and flying wing aircraft.

According to the engines of airplanes, there are propeller airplanes and jet airplanes. Propeller aircraft include piston propeller aircraft and turboprop aircraft. Piston propeller aircraft uses the rotation of propeller to push the air behind the aircraft, and uses its reaction force to push the aircraft forward. Jets, including turbojets and turbofan jets.
