NASA Sci Files segment demonstrating, through the Airbus A320 Flight Simulator, the power and control of thrust.

Wow, so this is a simulator. I've never seen any simulator like this at the video arcade. 00:00:00
Well, it's not exactly like the arcade. This is U.S. Airways' new Airbus A320 simulator. 00:00:06
We use it to train our pilots on our new Airbus aircraft. 00:00:10
In fact, we can simulate anything that the real aircraft can do. 00:00:12
I'm one of the treehouse detectives, and we're trying to win a contest. 00:00:15
But first, we need to know more about the force of thrust. Can you help us? 00:00:18
Well, I hope I can. 00:00:21
We learned that we need to know more about thrust. 00:00:27
Well, thrust is one of the forces acting on the aircraft in flight, 00:00:29
produced by the engines, which propel the aircraft through the air. 00:00:32
Why does our plane bank to the left? 00:00:35
The movement of the ailerons creates drag, 00:00:37
and this drag tends to move the nose away from the direction of the turn. 00:00:39
We compensate for this with the rudder. 00:00:43
Wow, the Airbus must be really heavy. 00:00:45
The Airbus is quite heavy. It can weigh up to 205,000 pounds. It's 100 tons. 00:00:48
It can carry 169 people, 50,000 pounds of fuel, and 16,800 pounds of cargo. 00:00:52
With all this weight, the Airbus must need a lot of thrust. 00:00:59
You're right. The Airbus has an incredible amount of thrust. 00:01:02
In fact, each engine can produce up to 32,000 pounds of thrust. 00:01:05
That is a lot of thrust. I think we need to know about thrust and weight. 00:01:08
Well, you're right. There's great experiments you can perform 00:01:13
that will help you to understand that relationship better. 00:01:15
That's a good idea. I'll see what I can find. 00:01:17
Thanks for letting me see the simulator. 00:01:19
You're welcome, Dick. Good luck on your contest. 00:01:20
