BOEING 747

 

Nowadays the Boeing 747 is one of the most famous airplanes in the world, becouse of its shape, capacity, economy… and of course  one of the most importat thing these days, its a ecofriendly airplane.

 

The 747 is a commercial airplene use to make long range travels. It has a great capacity for the fuel and is able to fly during 20 hours without stops. However, pilots prefer to stop and fill the tank.

 

On the cabin of Boeing we can found the most modern instruments, tablets and a lot of digital gadgets. It can transport around 700 people. It has 4 engines and a second floor, where bussiness people travel with restaurants and beds.

 

The Boeing 747 needs a cabin crew form by 30 people, its amazzing! And it can reach the average of 1000 km/h.

Airbus A310

The Airbus A310 is a commercial airplane used by the Spanish Air Force in one of its most important operative units, the 45 Group, which mission is to carry the most important authorities in Spain such as the Royal Family or the president of the government.

The Airbus A310 was invented in the early 80’s, and it’s an airplane used for many purposes like refuel other airplanes during the flight or transporting large loads. 

Apart from its use in the Spanish Air Force, the Airbus A310 is used by many countries as a military transport airplane, mainly in countries like Germany, Belgium, Canada, France, etc.

This airplane was created as an evolution of another transport plane, the Airbus A300, including many upgrades such as the ability to fly longer distances or carry heavier loads.

Moreover, there is another model of the Airbus A310, the A310 Zero G, which is adapted to be a scientific laboratory which main objective is to study the gravity.

LOCKHEED MARTIN F-35

The F-35 is one of the most technologically advanced fighter planes that have ever existed, designed by Lockheed Martin.

Some of the characteristics of this plane are that is able to take off in short places, like helicopters do, that’s why it is used also in aircraft carriers. Also is almost invisible for enemy radars, that technology makes this plane also perfect for espionage and reconnaissance missions.

Spain started a project to include the F-35 in the Spanish aircrafts fleet, in order to replace the current Harriers, but nowadays the project is paralysed because of the Spanish budget. The    F-35 is a very expensive plane, also, the preparation that a F-35 pilot need, is only imparted in countries like EEUU and Morocco.

Even so, is one of the aircrafts that every country would like to have, because of its versatility, and, also, the amount of new technology that it incorporates.

F-18 is the fastest airplane in the spanish army . It maximun speed is 1917 kilometers per hour and it was created in 1975 in US. Measures 17 meters and carries waepons such as bombs or missiles with it is be able to destroy other planes or buildings.  It is so beatiful superficially, because in the inside it have a lot of buttons and systems that are not very esthetic. The most significant part of this plane is the 2 wings that it have in the back because all this type of airplanes have only 1, so is easier to identificate when we see it. Also is different from the others because of the two bombs that it has under the wings because they are so big an not many airplanes are able to transport this type of bombs. F-18 is one of my favourites airplanes in the world because it is unique. 

On the other hand many people criticise it because they said that this type of planes can destroy a lot because they have very dangerous bombs.

In conclusion, I think we need this airplanes because if we are in a war we have to defend our citys and f-18 is so indicated to do this.

An airplane is a machine which was doing by the human for make reality their dreams of fly. There are a lot of planes  that are flying in this moment around the world.

Nowadays, we give the airplanes a lot of utilities, for example, we use to transport people or mercancy, we fight with their in the sky for defend us or atack their,…

A study, which was done at Oxford, showed that in 2050, the forty percent of the population, will have a civil airplane, and the fifty percent will have the licency. Obviusly this plane, will be smaller than the airplanes of today, and they have restringed some areas, but this is very interesting.

In my opinion, the airplane is one of the best invetions in all history of the human.

Beechcraft Bonanza (F33C)

 

The Bonanza is a civil/military utility light aircraft, the F33C model is a type of this aircraft certified for aerobatics.

In the Spanish air force, this utility aircraft was used on training tasks, but today only a few of them continue in use.

The last of them there are in Villanubla, in the 37 transport wing. Today are use to make a few flight hours by the most senior pilots.

This aircraft is about 8m length, 10m wingspan and 3m height. His weight is about 1500kg and have capacity for 4 passengers.

In the Spanish air force are paint in grey and orange.

 In recent years, airplanes have turned into the most important way of transport all over the world. First airplanes were made of wood and paper, but nowadays they are made of iron. There are a lot of types of planes, the most common airplanes are the commercial ones which are used everyday by millions of people in a way of transport from one country to another. But airplanes have a lot of uses apart from that one, it can also be used to protect our country from enemies, that ones are the fastest airplanes in the world. Another type of airplanes are that are used to prevent from a fire, that ones have in the bottom a big capsule where they transport a lot of liters of water. Nowadays, there is a new type of airplane that doesn't need any pilot, they are called "dron" and they are used by the police for the high-speed cameras or for security in the shopping centres. These airplanes are also the safest ones because they don't need any pilot inside them.

C-130 HERCULES


C-130 Hercules is an American plane used by the Spanish Air Force. It has participated in several missions from various fields, such as humanitarian aid, peacekeeping missions, among many others.

It was first acquired in 1973, and till the day, it continues to be used in most specialty transportation missions. The aircraft is located at the Zaragoza Air Base, which is part of the “Ala 31”.

As for its most relevant technical characteristics, they are:

- It has 4 motors.

- It can fly over the Atlantic Ocean without needing to be refuelled by another plane.

- It does not have weapons, although it has a version that does carry weapons.

- It can refuel other aircraft in flight.

To date, it is the aircraft of excellence of the Spanish Air Force, however, with the arrival of the new A400-M, the C-130 Hercules, it is being withdrawn from the Air Force aircraft staff.

The airplane I think about when I hear the word airplane is the F-108. That airplane is used in many activities in the Military forces as is one of the best airplanes that Spanish Army  has.

Its most known characteristic is how fast it is, it can get almost 300 kilometer/hour. It can hold very heavy weapons .It is not very usual to see one in the sky, and that is because of this characteristic, apart from the fact that airplanes from the Army do not want to be seen to keep in secret.

These type of airplanes are in the ‘’ Ala 12’’ in Seville and  in ‘’Ala 36’’ in Canarias, and they are amazing, I hope I can be a pilot in the future to get in one of these incredible machines.

Alejandro Fuentes Garrido



When I think of a plane, I remember when I was young (about 5) and I kept looking at the planes flying while they passed over my head. Nowadays, I belong to the air force and I am going to be studying for 5 years.

In third grade I will begin to fly an airplane called ´´Pillan´´ and in fourth grade I will be flying the C-101, known as ´´culopo´´, a plane that has stayed quite old, but still offers good performance and will continue to fly in our army for two more years, until pilatus arrives, another aircraft that, unlike the previous one, is not Spanish and has been highly anticipated by all the students of the academy.

Finally, I strongly believe that spain ariforce has been doing an excellent job all this years, and if this hadn´t exist, terrible events would have taken place because of lack of security.

Rubén Juárez Sánchez


An airplane, a great machine that is impossible to be descripted in just a short essay.

To sum up, I will say that this awesome vehicles are a mix of thousens small pieces maked with so much careful.

This pieces of iron result very useless when are separated, but if we have this pieces, a good mechanic and a great engeneer we can make an airplane.

Now we need a person with the necessary characteristics to manage it, and although so much people wish to be able to pilot this machines, only a little group of people is able to do it.

The majority of airplanes can go really fast, and some of them as fast as the sound or even more. It allow to make some acrobatics movements that are really much awesome if you have the oportunity to see it.

I don´t know how this machines will evolute, but I only know that I love them and the more I learn about the more I like them.

Alfonso Cros Párraga

 

I love planes since I was child. It is quite impresive see how a heavy object as it can suspend in the air and do lots of milles without refueling. Aircrafts fly because of two basic principles of Physics.

On the one hand, engines are really strong to move a huge mass. The explotion  inside of the engine Works thanks to a turbine, air, and fuel. Air is comprising with turbines which are moving because of the air flowing trough the tuve. At the same time it is mixed with fuel come to the wings. When they are an optimun mix, it is switched on a spark which creates so much press. All that press goes out of the tube and créate they speed in the plane.

On the other hand, airplanes need something that let them fly. That’s why there are wings, flpas… All these elements are aerodynamics issues to do fluids work in different ways. Wings aren’t located in the planes perpendicularly. They make an angle respect the floor in order to create less press over them. With this principle, aircrafts are elevated by because of the air.

Both principles are required to fly in planes. Moreover there are more issues for a better handle of the plane as direction, stability take-off and landing.

An airplane is one of the most important inventions for humanity in my opinión, because it has allowed people travel around the world in short times and also it allows us to ship all kind of stuff around the world.

Airplanes were invented around 1900, and since then they have been developing new improvements that have changed in many ways our lives. Nowadays, airplanes are used by almost every company to send products all over the world in record times. Another good thing about airplanes is that we can be connected all over the world and travel almost everywhere. In the other hand, planes pollute a lot and right now that is not a good thing for the planet but cientifics are working on how to reduce those pollutions so we can use airplanes without hurting the planet.

In conclussion, airplanes were a very good and useful invention for humanity and it is a machine that is going to keep improving to be helpfull for us.

C.C. Alberto Cañada Navarro

 

A plane is a transport that was invented in the XX´s century, it  was a very important progress in technology, and it was invented to make easy the human´s life.

First of all the main charasteristic of planes are their wings, that allow the plane fly in the sky whith the motor help. This motor it´s so powerful that can make a plane get the enough speed to take off.

Secondly. the body of the plane have got different shape depending in the objective of the plane, for example, if the plane is going to carry on peple from one place to another, it would have seat where the people can sit, however if the plane is going to transport containers it would be just an empty cabin

To sum up, dependig on the purpose of the plane it will have different shape, but all of them have wings, cabin where the pilot is and a very powerful motor.

Medina Pastor Eduardo

 

 

Since the airplane´s invention, the world has completely changed. What it seemed to be imposible hundreds of years ago, it is a reality. An airplane is a transport that has reduced the time that we used to spend travelling, for example, travelling by car from Madrid to Barcelona there are more than six hours driving. Nevertheless, by plane, it takes less than an hour.

In addition, nowadays, it is the fastest way to travel, and the safest, although when there is an airplane crash, the number of dead people is big enough that there aer people that have panic to travel by plane.

Whatsmore, this huge aircraft is made of thousands of pieces, and all of them have to be in the best conditions to reduce the probability of an accident.

In conclusion, an airplane is always improving and tending to be even more efficient and clean with the atmosphere.

Gonzalo Martínez Merino


An airplane is a machine to fly, it usually has two wings and can be powered by to methods. The first one is with a motor to rotate a part in the front of the airplane that propulse it. The second one is with a reaction motor, this kind of motor takes air from the sky and uses it to propulse the airplane, this method is better tan the first. The wings are necesary because is the part wich keep the airplane in the air.

Here in the Academia General del Aire in Spain we have an airplane wich uses the first method and other one wich uses the second one. The first airplane is slower tan the second airplane, so the first one is used in the third year and the second one is used in the fourth year. I can´t wait for the tird year, I want to fly.

Nowadays aeroplanes have become very common because of the facilities they have to connect our world.


The aeroplane was invented by the Wright Brothers and I think it is one of the best inventions in human history. People need to fly around the world to learn new languages, cultures and traditions. In addition aeroplanes provide a lot of facilities and  last month we could see some military aeroplanes like CN_235 or A_400M providing a lot of supplies to our country in Covid-19 times.  


On the other hand, some people criticize the massive use of this amazing transport for his contamination. However, some countries like Germany, USA, France and Spain are contributing to decrease the effects of contamination related to this transport 


To sum up, aeroplanes are changing our world every single day, and actual technology is improving it. 



MANUEL MUÑOZ AMADOR



I have been interested in planes since I was a child. Everytime I see an airplane flying I wonder how it can be posible. Aiplanes have enormous and sofisticated motors designing by the most cualified enginers. Moreover there different types of motor such us reactors. These are the ones that combat airplanes use. The commercial airplanes have lot of space in order to carry many people. They have many sits and usually he place where you sit ist narrow and uncomfortable. However, I am interested in army airplanes. They are better than a commercial one. If I could pilot an airplane I would pilot an army airplane. In the cabina there a lot of lights, bottons, sounds… 

I think been there must be very stressed, but I would like to be there in a future.
