The axes of flight are:
Longitudinal (Roll) Axis from tip of nose to
tip of tail – ROLL
Lateral (Pitch) Axis from one wingtip to
other wingtip – PITCH
Vertical (Yaw) Axis vertically through
meeting point of the longitudinal and lateral axes. – YAW
The Axes of Flight
Flight Control Surfaces
Ailerons• Are hinged, horizontal surfaces attached to the
back (trailing edge), outer edges of the wings of the plane.
• Used to turn the plane. (ROLL) – Longitudinal Axis• As one aileron rises, the opposite aileron lowers,
raising one wing and lowering the other, tilting (or banking) the plane toward the lower aileron.
Elevators• Are hinged, horizontal surfaces attached to the
trailing edge of the horizontal stabilizer. • Control the plane’s movement upward or downward.
(PITCH) – Lateral Axis• When the elevators are raised, the tail is forced
downward, the wings are forced upward, and the plane climbs.
Rudder• A hinged, vertical surface attached to the
trailing edge of the vertical stabilizer (tail of the plane).
• Helps the plane enter and recover from turns by swinging the tail to the left or right. (YAW) – Vertical Axis

Flight Control Surfaces
Determine whether an airplane rises or falls through the air:• Thrust• Drag• Lift• Gravity (Weight)
Four Forces of Flight
• The force that pushes or pulls a plane forward through the air.
• Propellers, jet engines, tailwinds, and other outside sources – even catapults! – can provide needed thrust.
Thrust
• The force that resists forward motion and acts against thrust.
• Created by friction between the plane and the atmosphere.
• If the force of drag is too great, then a plane will move slower and will lose lift.
Drag
• The force of lift exceeds the plane’s weight, the plane rises.
Lift
• Earth’s gravity pulls the plane downward, giving the plane weight.
