Sigma KEE - FlightElevator
FlightElevator(flight elevator)

appearance as argument number 1
-------------------------


(subclass FlightElevator FlightControlSurfaces) Transportation.kif 3496-3496 Flight elevator is a subclass of flight control surface
(documentation FlightElevator EnglishLanguage "The FlightElevatoris a moveable part of the horizontal stabilizer, hinged to the back of the fixed part of the horizontal tail. The elevators move up and down together. When the pilot pulls the stick backward, the elevators go up. Pushing the stick forward causes the elevators to go down. Raised elevators push down on the tail and cause the nose to pitch up. This makes the wings fly at a higher angle of attack, which generates more lift and more drag. Centering the stick returns the elevators to neutral and stops the change of pitch.[Wikipedia]") Transportation.kif 3497-3504 Flight elevator is a subclass of flight control surface
