PILOT BRIEFING
from page 36
5. Sublimation, deposition. An example of
sublimation is when structural ice evaporates from a wing during flight. An example
of deposition is when water vapor from the
atmosphere forms frost on a parked aircraft.
2. False. A toilet bowl is too small to be
affected by Coriolis force. The flushed fluid rotates in either direction with equal probability
and is determined by other factors. Coriolis effect can be observed by draining a very large
swimming pool that has stood still for many
hours.
6. Four inches. The CG shift is found by
multiplying the weight moved by the distance
moved and dividing the result by the gross
weight of the airplane. (200 times 40 divided
by 2,000 = 4).
3. The original version of the Convair B-36
Peacemaker had single-wheel main landing
gear. Each tire was nine feet two inches tall,
was three feet wide, weighed 1,320 pounds,
and contained enough rubber for 60 automobile tires.
4. (c) The famous Hollywood actress was also
an aviation pioneer and headed the Caribbeanbased airline, Antilles Air Boats.
7. True. Herman W. Lang, an inspector and
Nazi spy at the Norden factory during the
1930s, provided details of the bombsight to
the Luftwaffe. Ironically, the Germans considered their own bombsight, the Lotfe 7, to
be superior and paid the Norden device no
further interest.
8. Because each side of a square on a WAC
chart represents four times as many miles as
one side of an identical square on a TAC chart,
the square on the WAC chart contains 16 times
the number of square miles.

1. (a) David Clark developed a new way to
weave cloth while working for a bra manufacturer. This led him to found his own company,
develop anti-G suits for fighter pilots, and design
headsets.
