SOME HISTORY ...
The dream of flight goes back to prehistory. Many legends and myths of the ancient stories of the Greek flights as the flight of Icarus. Leonardo da Vinci, among other inventors.
The first flight by man by François de Rozier and the Marquis de Arlandes (in 1783) in an apparatus lighter than air, a paper balloon built by the Montgolfier brothers, full of hot air, the biggest challenge was to be building a machine heavier than air, can take flight on their own.
The Wright Brothers as the first to take off on board an airplane, December 17, 1903, off which lasted 12 seconds and which traveled about 36.5 meters.
Aviation has been a key issue in third world countries, for its realization have advanced much more than what has been achieved here in Colombia, some for other commercial war, and through the years have progressed in material structures that allow the aircraft has best choices of functionality and presentation.
PARTS OF THE PLANE !!!
Aircraft with greater density than air, equipped with wings and a cargo space capable of flying, driven by one or more motors.
All airplanes are made of the following parts:
- fuselage
- wings
- tail
- engine
- Undercarriage
- Landing gear. It is the mechanism which sets the wheels of the plane
- Landing gear. It is the mechanism which sets the wheels of the plane
- wings, Form the structural part where the lift is created primarily to allow the plane fly.
- Fuselage. Must necessarily be streamlined so that there is less air resistance. This is the part which accommodates the crew, passengers and cargo.
Control surfacecontrol surfaces or control that are in the wings: the ailerons, flaps, spoilers and slats. They are all moving parts that cause different effects during the flight.
- Ailerons : The ailerons are movable surfaces which are at the ends of the wings and on the trailing edge of these.
- horizontal stabilizers
Two surfaces are smaller than the wings, located almost always in horizontal position usually at the rear of the fuselage, and in different positions and shapes depending on the design, which ensures stability in the longitudinal direction, ie, ensure an angle constant attack if the pilot does not act on the controls.
¡¡¡ These are some terms and major parts of the plane, making the what is and allow its optimal functionality !!!
¡¡PROJECT !!
The theme of our project was to teach our colleagues what we love that are really planes, which took place for everyone to have a little more knowledge of this, and its functions, features, or some fun facts and some history, to open the plane a little more about this subject.
¡¡LEARNING!!
Classroom learning was not expected, given that only work in very little guidelines and was accompanied by the teacher, we can rescue the project was given a job which required time, things we did not know, and some were not yet so clear was what was achieved with satisfaction, the project that was chosen at will which made work more enjoyable and with more care.
¡¡WORK TO BE PRESENTED!!
The present work is a model aircraft, we seemed the best option so will be more appealing to our colleagues and we desemvolvernos in a better way in your exposion, was a work written by the members of the group the idea of this is to show the basic characteristics of a plane, its functions, its parts and the drone would permit this work.

How man learned to fly?
Yves Rossy, the self-proclaimed "Fusionman" and also called "Jet Man" is a Swiss pilot, inventor and aviation enthusiast. Be the first person to successfully build and fly with jet wings subject to the back. While the existence of such devices that allow men to fly without using an aircraft dates back to World War II, when working to develop rocket belts and jetpacks, Yves Rossy is the first man to design and build jet wings that enable stable and long flights with speeds up to 300 km / h, but does not have any system to take off or land if it is helping a number of aircraft and parachute.Yves Rossy developed and built jet wings based carbon fiber, a material widely used in aviation and aeronautics. These wings have a wingspan of 2.4 meters and are powered by 4 small jet engines JetCat brand, located under the wings perfectly aligned to avoid burn Rossy and not to cause it to lose control of the wings . Kerosene used as fuel. Versions are larger than some models used in modeling. Yves wears a heat-resistant tissue similar to that used by firefighters and racing drivers.miércoles, 2 de mayo de 2012
the world's largest airport
THE WORLD'S LARGEST AIRPORT
THE WORLD'S LARGEST AIRPORT
An airport is a location where aircraft such as fixed-wing aircraft, helicopters, and blimps take off and land. Aircraft may be stored or maintained at an airport. An airport consists of at least one surface such as a runway for a plane to take off and land, a helipad, or water for takeoffs and landings, and often includes buildings such as control towers, hangars and terminal buildings.
Larger airports may have fixed base operator services, seaplane docks and ramps, air traffic control, passenger facilities such as restaurants and lounges, and emergency services. A military airport is known as an airbase or air station.

Aviation
is the design, development, production, operation, and use of aircraft, especially heavier-than-air aircraft. Aviation is derived from avis, the Latin word for bird.
General aviation
General aviation includes all non-scheduled civil flying, both private and commercial. General aviation may include business flights, air charter, private aviation, flight training, ballooning, parachuting, gliding, hang gliding, aerial photography, foot-launched powered hang gliders, air ambulance, crop dusting, charter flights, traffic reporting, police air patrols and forest fire fighting.
Each country regulates aviation differently, but general aviation usually falls under different regulations depending on whether it is private or commercial and on the type of equipment involved.
Many small aircraft manufacturers serve the general aviation market, with a focus on private aviation and flight training.
The most important recent developments for small aircraft (which form the bulk of the GA fleet) have been the introduction of advanced avionics (including GPS) that were formerly found only in large airliners, and the introduction of composite materials to make small aircraft lighter and faster. Ultralight and homebuilt aircraft have also become increasingly popular for recreational use, since in most countries that allow private aviation, they are much less expensive and less heavily regulated than certified aircraft.

Antonov An-225
The Antonov An-225 Mriya (Ukrainian: Антонов Ан-225 Мрія, Dream, NATO reporting name: 'Cossack') is a strategic airlift cargo aircraft, designed by theAntonov Design Bureau in the 1980s. It is the world's heaviest aircraft. The design, built in order to transport the Buran orbiter, was an enlargement of the successful Antonov An-124. The An-225's name, Mriya (Мрiя) means "Dream" (Inspiration) in Ukrainian.

This aircraft Junker, and the same type, were part of the first fleet of the airline orcompany SCADTA Colombo German Air Transport, later Avianca. Low-wing monoplaneof all metal construction and had the engines modified to operate efficiently in the climate of the country. Were 9.50 meters long and 3.50 meters high. Their flight was 850kilometers and could carry up to 4 passengers, plus two crew.
Due to the topography of the country, the Junkers were adapted two floats for water landings in the rivers of different populations. Thus, the October 20, 1919 and following the course of the Magdalena River, Helmuth Von Krohn made the first flight intoColombia from Barranquilla to Girardot. There were eight hours with four emergency landings included. Girardot was established and on a scale of the ships on their waybetween Neiva and Barranquilla.
AVIATION STORIES
It is only now that we have known the ingenuity and creativity of Russian aircraft designers before the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917.One of those names lost in time is the Russian army officer Bezobrazov Aleksander, who assisted Mr. FE Moska triplane designed a strange game.The project began as a private venture and was completed in 1914, its unusual design features were noted as were very advanced for its time.The aircraft that preceded the First World War was full of great ideas and designs that mostly served to achieve anything but to fly, partly because no one knew exactly how it should have a plane.
