1ANATOMY OF AIRCRAFT
2Basic Parts of Aircraft
A normal aircraft basically consists of fuselage,
wings, empennage, power plant and undercarriage.
The size and shape of each aircraft components
varies to suit the role of the aircraft.

- Armament Package
- Normally installed in military fighter aircraft,
this is where gun rounds are stored.
2) Windscreen It protects the pilot from wind
surge when the aircraft moves at high speed.

Canards In this configuration, the tailplane is
brought forward to the front of the mainplane
(wings). Purpose Canards delay stalling, thus
making the aircraft stall-proof. How It Works
When aircraft is about to stall, the canards
will stall first before the mainplane.
This causes the canards to pitch down and the
aircraft is back to stable flight.
8Other Features of Airplane Anatomy
Elevons Elevon is a combination of elevator and
aileron. It is usually constructed in delta wing
aircraft. Purpose Since delta wing are
designed for supersonic aircraft, elevon is
implemented to control the pitch and roll of
aircraft. Tailplane is absent in this
configuration. How It Works There is no
difference as inhow the aircraft moves when this
controls wereengaged. The only difference is
that themovements of the control surfaces are
combined.
