Are Private Airplanes Allowed To Follow Any Trajectory?

Published by Song under airplanes

How is it regulated? Who do they contact before they liftoff? How do they know where other airplanes are? Do they have radar on their screens?

Why Do Airplanes Pressurize Their Cabins?

Published by Song under airplanes

This a thermodynamic question from a chapter on specific heats, entropy & adaibatic-processes: “Commerical jet aircraft fly at cruising altitudes between 30,000 & 40,000 ft. Yet such aircraft carry heat exchangers to cool cabin air while flying at these altitudes. (a) Estimate the air temperature at which jet aircraft fly. (b) Explain why it is necessary to cool cabin air at cruising altitudes. Hint: The ratio of the heat capacities of air at constant pressure and volume is about 1.4.” I alrealy have the answer to (a). It’s 181 Kelvins. I need help with (b). Even if you could just give me a verbal answer for why airplanes have to cool their cabins and hence pressurize them would be helpful. Thanks. Read more

How Can I Stop A Dog From Barking At Airplanes?

Published by Song under airplanes

We took in a 120 lb lab mix last November. Since we are spending more time outside this summer, I noticed that he barks at airplanes. When he’d bark in the house at “virtually” nothing, I have now realized it is the airplanes flying overhead. (We are four miles from a small city airport)
Aside from moving, how can I get him to stop barking at them?
Telling him “no” just isn’t enough to get his attention. Read more
