How planes were invented
In 1903 the wright brothers invented the first ever plane that flew in the world.
People had flown before but they made the first powered aircraft.
The wright brothers plane worked because of the light weight aluminium.it is still used in planes today.
This is the engine that they used
SOME PLANES AVAILABLE TODAY
Differences between old and new planes
New planes are much faster to get to different places because they have better engines. Because technology is better.
Planes are now used for heavier freight than in the olden days.
They are also used for much more passengers for instance the a380 can hold about 613 people at once when not even full.
Planes are very safe these days, much more safe than in the olden days. To fly a plane in modern times they have safety standards and pilots have to pass lots of tests.
747 The electricity used to fly the 747
can light up 430.000 32inch flat screen TVs
The 747 is the longest passenger plane ever, it is 72 metres long
The wingspan is 59 metres
The cruising speed is 893km/h
The height is 19 metres
Dreamliner/787 The Boeing 787 is the newest
passenger plane
The plane’s top speed is 958km/h
the plane’s Wingspan is 60m
The Dreamliner was introduced on October 26 2011
a380 The wingspan for the a380 is 72m.
The height for the a380 is 24m
There are about 630 people on the plane when full
The a380 is the only plane that has a full 2 decks
There are 4 engines on the a380
A330 The a330 can fit up to 470 people
The length of the plane is 63.69 mitres
The wingspan is 60 mitres
The tail height is 156 mitres
The cabin width is 5 mitres
There are two engines on this plane
Each a330 has 3 fuselage sections that are joined together by 12,000 fasteners
My ideas why it has changed
planes these days have changed a lot
for instance you can now use phones on the plane with internet in some places
You also have TV screens that are even touch screen. They show videos on demand
The planes also go much faster than before
they also have beds in business and first.
How planes will change in the future
One thing that i know will change is that planes will be super sonic so that you can get to the place you are going faster.
There might be windows all around so that you can see every direction.
In economy class they can have actual beds so you can get some sleep.
