The gyropilot, commonly called an automatic pilot, consists basically of three devices, each of which detects disturbances of the aircraft in one plane and corrects for these disturbances by moving the appropriate control : the rudder control for azimuth and sudden change in heading(yaw) disturbances, aileron control for roll disturbance, and elevator control for pitch disturbance. In modern gyropilots rate detection forms the principal reference and displacement detection plays a secondary role. 6, record 3, English, - automatic%20pilot

The pitching motion is being caused by the deflection of the elevator of this aircraft. The elevator is a hinged section at the rear of the horizontal stabilizer. There is usually an elevator on each side of the vertical stabilizer.

La gouverne de profondeur est un volet mobile situé sur l'arrière de l'empennage horizontal, qui lui-même est placé vers la queue de l'appareil.

An airborne wind turbine is a design concept for a wind turbine that is supported in the air without a tower. A tether would be used to transmit energy to the ground. These systems would have the advantage of tapping an almost constant wind and doing so without a set of slip rings or yaw mechanism, without the expense of tower construction. The main disadvantage is that kites and "helicopters" come down when there is insufficient wind. These schemes require a very long power cable and an aircraft exclusion zone. As of 2006, no commercial airborne wind turbines are in regular operation. 4, record 7, English, - airborne%20wind%20turbine

The turn coordinator is really two instruments. The gyro portion shows the aircraft’s rate of turn--how fast it’s changing direction. A ball in a tube called the "inclinometer" or "slip/skid indicator" shows the quality of the turn--whether the turn is "coordinated." 5, record 10, English, - turn%20coordinator

The turn coordinator is similar to the turn(-)and(-)slip indicator. It is found in more modern aircraft. The main difference is in the presentation of the turn. A miniature airplane is used to show the bank instead of a needle. 6, record 10, English, - turn%20coordinator

Plusieurs avions modernes sont équipés d'un coordonnateur de virage. Cet instrument remplace l'indicateur de virage et d'inclinaison latérale. Il fonctionne sur le même principe, mais certaines particularités de construction lui permettent de réagir non seulement au lacet mais aussi au roulis. Plutôt que de tourner autour de son axe horizontal, comme le fait l'indicateur de virage et d'inclinaison latérale, le gyroscope est incliné d'environ 35 degrés. Ainsi, lors d'un mouvement autour des axes de roulis et de lacet, la précession fait rouler légèrement le mécanisme du gyroscope. Le cardan est relié à un avion miniature sur la face de l'instrument. Le petit avion s'incline pour indiquer au pilote les taux de roulis et de lacet.[...] La bille donne les mêmes indications que celles de l'indicateur de virage et d'inclinaison latérale. 3, record 10, French, - coordonnateur%20de%20virage

Wheelbarrowing is a condition that arises when the nosewheel rather than the main gear is forced to support an abnormal share of the aircraft's weight. Touching down on the nosewheel, excessive braking, or friction between the wheels and runway caused by a side-skid may cause wheelbarrowing. Wheelbarrowing can damage a nosewheel or cause an aircraft to yaw uncontrollably off its intended course.. 2, record 14, English, - wheelbarrowing
Record number: 14, Textual support number: 1 OBS
During take-off, "wheelbarrowing" may occur at lower speeds than during landing due to the slipstream increasing the lifting effect of the horizontal stabilizer. The use of excessive forward elevator control pressure during take-off to hold the aircraft on the ground to speeds above normal take-off speed could, if a "yaw" force is introduced, result in serious wheelbarrowing. 3, record 14, English, - wheelbarrowing

In the compilation of engineering drawings the three orthogonal axes are often labelled in Cartesian fashion: x=roll, y=pitch, z=yaw. For the three-axis stabilised spacecraft, the x-axis and y-axis are otherwise known as the east-west and north-south axes, respectively; the z-axis passes through the sub-satellite point. This leads to the definition of the box-shaped satellite’s faces as follows: the "plus-x face" faces east; the "minus-x face" faces west; +y faces south; -y faces north; +z is the Earth-pointing face; and -z is the "anti-Earth face." 3, record 20, English, - pitch%20axis

Le repère orbital local est défini en chaque point de l'orbite par les trois vecteurs unitaires. Ces vecteurs sont construits à partir du vecteur position et du vecteur vitesse du satellite : Le vecteur L est colinéaire au vecteur position P (sur l'axe centre Terre, satellite). Il définit l'axe de lacet. Le vecteur T est perpendiculaire au plan de l'orbite (vecteur L, vecteur V). Il définit l'axe de tangage. Le vecteur R complète le trièdre. Il appartient au plan (vecteur L, vecteur V) et définit l'axe de roulis. Il ne coïncide pas exactement avec le vecteur vitesse à cause de l'excentricité de l'orbite. 2, record 20, French, - axe%20de%20tangage

The carrier is fitted with the SATRAP computerised, integrated stabilisation system designed to maintain stabilisation to within 0. 5º of horizontal, allowing aircraft to be operated up to Sea State 5/6. As well as the carrier's two pairs of active stabilising fins and twin rudders, the system has two computer-controlled compensation units which consist of two rail tracks for trains carrying 22t of deadweight. These tracks run transversely below the flight deck. The system is designed to compensate for wind and heel and control roll, yaw and surge. 1, record 21, English, - SATRAP

L'atmosphère dans laquelle se déplace un avion n'est pas immobile. Elle est le siège de divers mouvements dont certains sont de grande échelle, comme le vent, et d'autres d'échelle beaucoup plus réduite, comme les turbulences ou encore les perturbations créées par les avions eux-mêmes. En effet lorsqu'un avion se déplace il crée un sillage constitué de deux gros tourbillons contrarotatifs qui prennent naissance aux extrémités des ailes et dont l'intensité décroît lentement. Toutes ces perturbations vont affecter le vol de l'avion. Elles peuvent créer, en particulier, des déplacements verticaux et des mouvements de roulis dangereux, surtout s'ils se produisent à proximité du sol au cours des phases de décollage ou d'atterrissage. 2, record 22, French, - perturbation%20d%27attitude%20en%20roulis
