Airplanes have wings that generate lift.
High-wing
Low-wing

The body of an airplane is called the fuselage.

Most General Aviation airplanes have one piston engine that drives a propeller.

The engine cowl covers the engine compartment.

Typical airplanes have three wheels as part of thelanding gear.
Above: Tricycle gear, like a bike, has a third wheel in the front.
Below: Taildraggers have their third wheel in the back.

Fuel tanks are usually located inside the wings.

Airplanes have windshields just like a car. Light airplanes don’t need wipers as the propeller blast clears rain away.

Airplane doors vary from model to model.

Pilot and passengers sit in the cockpit. Most light airplanes have two, four, or six seats.

Ailerons on the rear edge of the wings tilt the wings for a turn or “bank.”

Turns
Left Turn: Left aileron up and right down
Right Turn: right aileron up and left down.

The elevator (on horizontal stabilizer) moves up (or down) to force the nose of the airplane up (or down.)
![Page 16: PARTS OF AN AIRPLANE General Aviation planes vary in size and shape but the basic parts remain the same. Cirrus SR20 Piper Seneca Eclipse 500 Aviat Pitts.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bfed1a28abf838cb92f6/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Elevators to Move Up and Down
Elevators Up: Tail goes down, nose of plane goes up
Elevators Down: Tail goes up, nose goes down

The rudder (on the vertical stabilizer) moves the airplane’s nose left or right, helping it turn.
Push left rudder pedal and the plane turns left
Push right rudder pedal and the plane turns right

Flaps on the wings change the shape of the wing to provide more lift and drag. This allows the airplane to fly slower.
Flaps down

FLAPS
There are many different types of flaps used, with the specific choice depending on the size, speed and complexity of the aircraft on which they are to be used, as well as the era in which the aircraft was designed. Plain flaps, slotted flaps, and Fowler flaps are the most common

Pitch Pitch is when the
nose of the plane is either up or down and is controlled by the elevators
![Page 23: PARTS OF AN AIRPLANE General Aviation planes vary in size and shape but the basic parts remain the same. Cirrus SR20 Piper Seneca Eclipse 500 Aviat Pitts.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bfed1a28abf838cb92f6/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Roll Roll is when the wings
would cause the airplane to dip to the left or right (also known as bank).
This is caused by the ailerons

Yaw Yaw is when the nose of
the plane is turned to the left or the right
This is controlled by the rudder
