There
are thousands of designs and ideas about aircraft which have been developed
through aviation history. Despite this some main components became permanent in
every aircraft design. As fix-wing aircrafts are the most common aircrafts they
will be the most studied. Topics covered includes: Fixed-wing aircraft
components, Control surfaces, Powerplant and propulsion devices, Landing gear,
Cockpit, Navigation lights, Rotary-wing aircraft components.
