Aeronautics Assignment Paper

Initial Post

Begin by doing some online research and reading on each of these specific fixed-wing aircraft:

Crop dusting plane
Heavy lift/transport plane
Fighter jet
High-altitude surveillance jet

Then, select one of the aircraft types for the topic of your initial post. Develop a structured and engaging initial post that covers each of the following requirements:

Describe the mission of the aircraft, i.e., what is it required to do in flight?

Discuss how the performance characteristics of the aircraft – things like takeoff and landing distance, rate of climb, speed, maneuverability, and stability – allow it to meet its mission requirements, integrating and making specific and direct connections to related concepts of motion and forces presented in the Module 3 lesson.

Embed at least one graphic or video within your post (do not attach) that helps visualize some aspect of your initial post discussion.
