It is a machine capable of flight..
Helicopters
It an aircraft lifted and sustained in the air horizontally by rotating blades turning on vertical axes through power supplied by an engine.
Lighter-than-air craft are aircraft that rely on their buoyancy to stay aloft. They are divided into two main categories: balloons and airships. Lighter-than-air craft have been used for a variety of purposes, including transportation, military operations, and scientific research.
Did you know...
Airplanes
a vehicle with wings that travels through the air with people inside
land on water
land on earth
Not driven by power
- gliders
- hang-gliders
- para-gliders
Driven by power
- airliner
- supersonic fighter plane
Airships
airships are aircraft powered, lighter-than-air, which the direction of flight can be controlled
Heavier-than-air craf is an engine-driven fixed-wing, that is supported in flight by the dynamic reaction of the air against its wings.
Did you know...
Drones
Controlled by someone on the ground, used for example for surveillance, for dropping bombs, or for filming or taking photographs
It is a a tube containing materials which, when set on fire, give off a jet of gas which drives the tube forward, usually up into the air, used eg as a firework, for signalling, or for launching a spacecraft.
Kites
A light frame covered with some thin material, to be flown in the wind at the end of a long string.
Microlights
A small private aircraft carrying no more than two people, with an empty weight of not more than 150 kg and a wing area not less than 10 square metres: used in pleasure flying and racing
Ballons
Balloons are unpowered and rely on the wind to move. Consisting of a nacelle and a fabric balloon connected with ropes
