Plane Sense is a handbook for aviation enthusiasts, especially aircraft owners and operators or those who are interested in becoming aircraft owners, who are looking for a quick reference guide on a …

Proponents of the X-30 believe it could herald a new era in flight, spawning military and civilian aircraft capable of global range at hypersonic speeds, or low-cost and routine access to space.

Lockheed Martin Skunk Works is leading the design, build and flight test of the the X-59 quiet supersonic technology X-plane.

Plane Design • Students could make their own plane out of clay, craft or building materials, or design one with 3D printing software.

Suppose that P is the plane passing through (x0, y0, z0) which is perpendicular to V. What is the equation for P? If we subtract the position vector X0 = hx0, y0, z0i from all of the points in the plane, …

The airfoil lifts the plane in the air, and once up, thrust will push the aircraft forward. We need energy from an engine to create thrust. However, when we thrust something forward in the air,...

Determining the equation of a plane from three non-collinear points on the plane on the plane, we can create two non-parallel vectors on the plane. Then, by definition, if we take the cross product of these …
