DESCRIPTIVE ESSAY OF AN AIRPLANES

Nowadays, international flights are very common in our society. Obviously airplanes play an important role. Without that machines, we wouldn’t be able to travel around the world.

An airplane is a powered heavier-than-air vehicle with fixed wings. This first fact is very important, because if the airplane wasn’t heavier than air, it wouldn’t be able to fly. Another part that is very important in this vehicle are the wheels, they must have the correct pressure. If not, the security of the tribulation would be in danger. 

To conclude, I consider that airplanes are the most important and complex vehicles in the world. They allow us to travel anywhere in the world in hours. Without the shadow of a doubt, I’d say that this vehicles are the future of mobility.

1st Descriptive essay of an airplane. C.C. Rubén Cuenca Martínez. The F4 Phantom

The F4 Phantom is a twin-engine, long-range fighter bomber that has been broadly used since its first flight in the 60s mainly by the US Military and the Iranian Air Force.

This plane was mostly used during the Vietnam War for bombing and air superiority purposes. Although it was a much heavier plane than most of fighters it could reach Mach 2. It preserved for at least 50 more years in other armies such as the German Air Force and even served in the Spanish Air Force. However, today the F4 Phantom stands no chance against the extremely advanced 4^th and 5^th generation fighter jets that some armies can afford. That is the main reason why only some countries located in the Middle East still use it.

In conclusion the F4 Phantom is nowadays an outdated plane for modern dog fighting but will remain as one of the most iconic planes of the Vietnam War and the Cold War era.

        Airplanes are one of the most amazing means of transport that have been developed up to our current times. They include all the facilities of any conventional transport, except for the fact they are way faster than the rest.

            On the one hand, if we are talking about planes used to transport people , they usually have the ability to transport many passengers at once. Indeed, if they carry out international flights they would allow you as a passenger to travel huge distances within a really small period of time. That’s one of the main reasons of why planes are considered to be so fascinating nowadays.

            

            On the other hand, if we focus more on the technical aspects of planes, we will see that every single piece that builds up this huge machines have a high complexity level of comprehension in order to study and understand them. 

To sum up, planes are not only popular due to all the fascinating mechanisms they have, but also because of all the facilities they have brought to out modern society.

Airplane Writing Gallardo (C-101)

 

When it comes to refering to airplanes, there are lots of different types according to its shape, capacities and purposes. The plane I like most is the C-101, which is the one used by the “Patrulla Águila” of the Spanish Air Force.

This model is well-known for its aerodinamic design, which can be noticed by the brightness and smoothness it shows while flying. It is made of a light kind of metal, so it has the perfect balance between  weight and power.

This “metallic bird” is the one that people in 4º grade of the Air Force Academy use, so one of its main characteristics is the intuitive controls it has. Despite the age of this plane, it still continues giving an exceptional level in terms off lightness, and its a pity the fact that it is going to be changed in two years by the Pillatus, due to the fact that I would have loved to be able to sit and control this marvelous beast.

The marvelous machine the Eurofighter is

 Whereas the whole aviation industry has been evolving, we the europeans felt the need to catch up with our friends the Chineses, Russians or the Americans. The world of fighter planes has jumped into the 5th generation with models like the American F22 Raptor or F35 Lightning, the Russian MiG-35 PAK-FA or the Chinese J-20 and we have released the Eurofighter as a try to compete with these models. 

These plane is quite different to other fighter planes we are used to see because it has two main things that makes it uncommon, delta-type wings and two frontal spoilers which give to the plane a huge capacity of maneuvering, very similar to the Russian planes. 

Apart from the amazing maneuverability it has also an hyper powerful engine which can make the plane reach velocities near Mach 2, these means the plane can fly at a speed that is two times the speed of the sound (Approximately 1235 km per hour). 

 Finally, other input the Eurofighter is known for it is its modern in-flight computers and the new helmets which are compatible with sensors that recognize if the pilot is looking forward or not so as to send him the proper information according with the moment of the flight. 

In conclusion, the Eurofighter is an amazing machine and personally I am very proud that our Air Force can count with them.
