1. A vehicle which can fly is classified as follows: aircraft (1)lighter-than-air aircraft ballon airship (2)rotorcraft helicopter gyroplane (3)glider (4)airplane
4. An airplane can be divided into the following groups according to the aircraft’s air range. (1)short-range aircraft / short-haul aircraft The air range is shorter than 2400 kilometers. (2)medium-haul aircraft The air range is longer than 2400 kilometers but shorter than 4800 kilometers. (3)long-range aircraft / long-haul aircraft The air range is longer than 4800 kilometers.

2. An airplane can be divided into the following groups according to the types of aircraft’s engine. (1)propeller-driven aircraft piston propeller-driven aircraft turboprop propeller-driven aircraft (2)jet aircraft turbojet aircraft turbofan jet aircraft

1. Airframe (1)fuselage The fuselage of the airplane holds all of the parts together and carries the passengers or cargo.

(2)wing / airfoil The wings generate most of the lift necessary for flight. ① aileron Ailerons are parts of the wing which are used to roll the aircraft. At the trailing edge, it’s an aileron. ②leading edge slat ③trailing edge flap Flaps and slats are parts of the wing which are used during take off and landing to increase lift and drag. ④spoiler Spoilers are parts of the wing which are used to roll the aircraft and to decrease lift and increase drag during landings. 21 Between the leading and trailing edges, it’s a spoiler.

(4)landing gear / undercarriage Airplane require landing gear for taxiing, takeoff and landing. (5)powerplant Most modern aircraft are powered by gas turbine, or jet engines.

7. An airplane can be divided into the following groups according to the positions of the wing relative to the fuselage. (1)low wing airplane A low wing airplane is an airplane whose wing is below the cabin. (2) mid wing airplane A mid wing airplane is an airplane whose wing is anywhere between the fuselage. (3)high wing airplane A high wing airplane is an airplane whose wing is above the cabin.
11
3. An airplane can be divided into the following groups according to the aircraft’s flight velocity. (1)supersonic aircraft Supersonic aircraft travels faster than the speed of sound. (2)hypersonic aircraft Hypersonic aircraft travels much faster than the speed of sound. (3)transonic aircraft Transonic aircraft travels approximately equal to the speed of sound. (4)subsonic aircraft Subsonic aircraft travels slower than the speed of sound but 12 also very fast.
13
5. An airplane can be divided into the following groups according to the type of landing gear. (1)landplane A landplane is an airplane that can take off from or land on land. (2)seaplane / hydroplane A seaplane or hydroplane is a type of airplane that can take off from or land on water. (3)amphibian An amphibian is an airplane which can land on both 14 land and water.

6. An airplane can be divided into the following groups according to the number of wings. (1)monoplane A monoplane is an airplane with a single pair of wings. (2) biplane A biplane is an old-fashioned type of airplane with two pairs of wings, one above the other. (3)multiplane A multiplane is an airplane with more than two pairs 15 of wings, say, three or four pairs.
