Course content

3 sections • 22 lectures • 2h 4m total length

  • Introduction1:30

    Kick off the course by outlining the airplane’s structure and flight phases, from power sources and engines to takeoff, flight dynamics, and landing, with cockpit insights and hands-on demonstrations.

  • Views and Main Body7:47

    Explore top, side, and front views of an airplane to locate the fuselage, engines, and tail, and examine fixed-wing design, appendages, and material evolution from aluminium to composites.

  • Landing Gear7:31

    Explore how landing gear supports the aircraft on wheels during taxi, landing, and takeoff, and how tricycle and tail-dragger configurations, nitrogen-filled tires, and retractable hydraulics minimize drag.

  • Tighten Your Seat Belts1:47

    Explore how energy powers aircraft by examining engines, power sources, and their technical specifications. Understand how the fuselage, landing gears, and surface support takeoff, flight options, and directional movement.

  • Petrol or Gasoline Engine7:28

    Explore how a petrol engine converts fuel into power through a five-step cycle—intake, compression, ignition, expansion, and exhaust—using a piston, cylinder, spark plug, and crankshaft.

  • Diesel Engine2:23

    Diesel engines use air-only intake, high compression, and spray-injected fuel that auto-ignites from hot air. In contrast, petrol engines mix air and fuel and require a spark.

  • Propellers5:12

    Explore how airplane engines generate thrust with propellers and rotor blades, contrast them with car engines, and explain propulsion via Newton's third law.

  • Jet Engines7:35

    Explore how jet engines convert fuel into high-speed exhaust to generate thrust, detailing intake, compression, combustion, expansion, and exhaust, plus the role of bypass for efficiency.

  • Bypas Ratio7:17

    Learn how bypass ratio in turbojet engines impacts thrust and efficiency, analyzing mass flow, momentum, and fuel-air mixing to optimize aircraft propulsion.

  • Location of Fuel3:56

    Discover how aircraft store fuel in hollow wing sections with integral tanks, and compare rigid removable and bladder tank options. Learn about aviation gasoline and jet fuel and their roles.

Requirements

  • don't need to know a lot about airplane , this course is 0 to 100 ;)

Description

In this Course, We tried to talk about all the Components of the plane's details and how it functions in different parts of it from the time it is Takeoff until it is Landing and explain about the function of the engines , airfoils , rudder and anything else about the entire plane


Who this course is for:

  • Students that want to know about the details of the airplane when it's on the runway , in the clouds or even landing
  • Good for beginners , intermediates and even professionals
  • Curiosity to learn about the engineering behind airplanes in a holistic manner
  • Learners who wish to see a real-life application of engineering and physics and more importantly, understand them.
