NASA Sci Files segment demonstrating how cockpit controls negotiate the forces of flight.

Descargar la transcripción

We put a rudder on our plane. It helps stabilize the plane. 00:00:00
This looks like it moves. What does it do? 00:00:04
This is an elevator. It helps the airplane go up and down. 00:00:07
When the pilot moves the control yoke inside the airplane, they pull back on it. 00:00:10
This elevator comes up and makes the airplane climb. 00:00:14
If they push forward, the elevator goes down and the airplane is going to descend. 00:00:18
During takeoff, are all four forces of flight being used? 00:00:23
Yes, they are. We always have gravity and drag. 00:00:27
We have to overcome those by creating the thrust and the lift. 00:00:29
We do the thrust with the engine, causing the propeller to turn at maximum power. 00:00:32
And then we use the elevator to create lift on the wings. 00:00:37
The best way to find out is, guess what? 00:00:41
What? 00:00:44
You're going to get your first flying lesson today. 00:00:45
Me, up in the air, flying? 00:00:48
Yep. 00:00:50
All right, I'm ready. Let's go. 00:00:51
That was so cool. I can't believe I was flying the plane. 00:00:58
I have a question. What's the biggest challenge you run into when you're flying a plane? 00:01:02
Seeing the ground when the weather is bad is the biggest obstacle. 00:01:06
I heard NASA Langley is doing some really cool research that will help pilots fly in foggy weather. 00:01:10
I think it's called synthetic vision. Have you ever heard about it? 00:01:15
Yes, I have. 00:01:18
Synthetic vision will give the pilots a clear electronic picture of what's outside. 00:01:19
Even when it's foggy or dark outside? 00:01:24
Yes. There will be a screen that the pilot can look at and see if there are mountains ahead. 00:01:26
Like a video game? 00:01:30
Almost. Synthetic vision uses satellite signals and global positioning systems to give the pilot a very sophisticated map. 00:01:32
And it will definitely help prevent aircraft crashes in the future. 00:01:39
That's so cool. I hope that by the time I become a pilot, synthetic vision will be in every plane. 00:01:42
This will be an experience I will always remember. 00:01:47
This will be an experience I will always remember. 00:01:50
I can't believe I was really flying a plane. 00:01:52
