Write a descriptive essay of an airplane (around 150 words). You have 20 minutes to do it. You cannot search the internet. Write it in a separate document and then copy and paste it here. Remember to write down your surname and name.
An airplane is a machine powered by engines that was first constructed by the Wright brothers in 20th century. An airplane usually is usually composed of some esential parts.
First of all, a body of an airplane is needed to carry either passengers or cargo depending on the type of plane. The cabin is found most of the times at the front of the plane. The cabin is the room where pilots and other personnel, who are in charge of the vehicle, are placed. Next, airplanes always carry also wings that vary from long, big wings to small and more aerodynamical wings like jet airplanes.
At the back, airplanes also have a tail that provides the machine the capability to manouver. Most of the times, wheels are disposed under the body but there also exist planes that do not have them because they land on water. Other parts that a plane could carry could be guns, extra engines, etc

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 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.

Generally,
we can divide an airplane in two big parts, the cockpit which is the part where
the pilots go in and inside it we can find the controls. The second big part is
the fuselage, a wide section where the rest of people travel. In the sides of
the fuselage we can find the wings, one of the most important parts which is
formed by flaps and aileron and have a crucial role in takeoffs and landings.
All planes can fly due to the engines, which are very expensive and are located in different parts depending on the type of the aircraft. This part is fundamental for the flight because it is the responsible of the power of planes and this is the reason why mechanics have to do taught revisions.

An airplane is a machine invented to be able to fly. The initial goal was
to fly, however nowadays is used for many functions.
It is necessary
to take into account that it has been used for violent activities, for example they
could take photos from their enemy, transport arms in short periods of time, and
moreover, they were able to attack from the air with bombs. Nowadays, it is
used to transport merchandise and people among other things. The plain has
built bridges between countries and continents, helping the development of
globalization. Nevertheless,
it is a means of transport that not many people have access to it.
To end, I think that the plan has evolved so much, it was and object made
of wood and currently the mechanics try to build on lightweight materials, as
plastics. In my personal opinion, I think that it is the best means of
transport and gives you high level of commodity a security.

Some people might think that an airplane is just a machine, a brilliant humankind invention, or even just a means of transport. Personally I think it is much more than that, it is true that it is also a machine and a very complex invention, but it goes further than that. When you take off for your first time in your life you immediately understand that the aeronautical world is also about sensations and feelings. It is difficult to get your head around the fact that a 50-tonnes, 60-meters-long metal giant is capable of floating in the air, and not only that, it is also capable of cruising the air at amazing speeds up to 1200 kilometers per hour.
But this beautiful world isn’t only about feelings and mouth-opening gigantic planes flying over our heads, it has a lot of effort and sacrifice behind it. Normally the first reaction to a perfectly uniformed pilot walking into an airplane walking into an A330 is: “How lucky, I wish I was there!”. But there are hundreds of hours of study, thousands of hours away from home and family and not so many hours of sleep. And it is all that passion given to the beautiful world of aviation which makes it so mesmerizing.

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.

When it comes 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.

Airplanes are machines that have the ability of flying. In the spanish air force we use them in order to protect our aerial space. These airplanes are very expensive due to their complexity and to the materials that compounds them.
They have several parts like wings, that give them stability, motor engines, which give it the potence to fly or its bottom that is used to directionate the plane. There are lot of different types of airplane which different functions, since throwing water to fires to destroying enemies airplanes.
Airplanes are like big birds which goes through protecting and serving us so they are essential in the task of protecting the society and also giving help in some places like poor countries.

An aeroplane is a machine which was invented by the “Wright Brothers”.Aeroplanes
have become very common these days, they connect most of the cities or
countries in the world. There are more than a hundred of aeroplane companies.
It is mainly of two different types, the militar and the
civil aeroplanes. The first type is used to carry people or objects instead
within the country and from one country to another.
The second type of the plane could be used for dyfferent
types of objectives. For example they are used to carry soldiers or ammunition,
or to rescue people who is trapped, or in a war, they are used as weapons,
throwing bombs and stuff like that.
So the plane has been a great benefit to he world, allowing
us to move everywhere in the world without any complication. But is true that
the prices changes depending on the distance, although it is much cheaper than
if you go by car or bus, and is faster.
Antonio Fernández López
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 tripulación 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 these vehicles are the future of mobility.
Jose Enrique Martínez Castellanos.
Airplanes,
a common obsession in here. Most of us have dreamt about them since we can
remember and it’s not a secret, we have all been raising our heads almost all
our life just after hearing to an airplane.
Fantastic
machines that reflect perfectly ambition as well as elegance. Those feelings of
freedom, peacefulness, breathtaking situations while flying make them capable
of leaving no one unsurprised after their appearance. Furthermore, not only
their function but also their symbolism encourages me to say that airplanes are
one of the most important and revolutionary inventions of humanity. They are
the representation of the technological evolution, the entire world requires
the services that airplanes provide us such as transportation of people, goods
delivery, security and defense, rescue and thousand more activities they do
every day and we don’t even realize it.
So
concluding, we can affirm that planes have arrived at a certain level of importance
in our lives that no one could imagine live without them. Just think about the
daily limitations we would have to face in the hypothetical case of not having
them to make our life easier.
Just
impossible.
Macho Fillat, Manuel Jesús.
Airplanes are a relatively new invention, people have been using them for long journeys for less than a hundred years. They have made world communication much easier.
On the one hand, they were a key point in communications years ago when letters must be sent the quickest possible. They also help now when packages are sent to other continents. It is also very cheap nowadays to take a flight, almost anyone can pay for it.
On the other hand, they are not the most efficient transport and contribute a lot to the pollution of the world. Years ago it was very expensive and only rich people could use it. In addition they are generally very noisy and that is problematic when flying above cities.
In conclusion, they are great machines and have helped humanity for years. However they are going to be outdated in some years if another method of propulsion is not found.
Pablo Fijo Ordóñez
An airplane has a lot of components and pieces, however it can be described easily saying that a physical principle is what lies under that huge piece of metal or other more sophisticated materials and components. I am talking about Venturi effect which can be explained with the difference of pressures on both sides of the airplain.
Finally, it is necessary to remark that a description from an engineering point of view would be more precise, however it is important to have always in mind the physics which make humans capable of reach the sky.
Sergio Rubio López
In the past many people tried to create a machine that allow them to fly above the earth. One of the inventors that worked on it was Leonardo da Vinci, unfortunately he could not reach his aim and the airplane had to wait for many decades to be invented.
Nowadays technology
and science is in constant progress, obviously airplanes are also being improved
all the time. An average plane has two wings, a front cabin where the pilot has
the control of the plane and some turbines that allow the plane to land off.
There are
many models of airplanes because they can have many uses, for example, they can
transport persons or materials between countries, they can be used just for fun
or they can have a military use.
In
conclusion airplanes are for sure one of the most important transport on these
days.
There are many types of planes, which can be classified depending on their function; fighters, others for transport of people or material, there are also others that are used for teaching new pilots how to flight... Today I am going to focused on the C101, the plane used by the students of the Spanish Airforce Academy to learn the basic concepts of flight.
It has two cabins, one at the back for the teacher and the front one for the future professional pilot. The two cabins have exactly the same controls, it has been designed this way in case the teacher has to take full control of the machine.
Talking about the exterior part of the plane, we can see it’s characteristic red colour, but it also has some silver coloured parts.
Another point to take into account when talking about this is aircraft is that is used by the Spanish Eagle Patrol for its shows.
