aerodynamic controls
Aerodynamic controls are devices that help pilots steer and stabilize an aircraft by manipulating airflow. These include surfaces like ailerons, elevators, and rudders, which change the airplane’s angle and direction. By adjusting these surfaces, pilots can turn, climb, or descend smoothly. The controls work by creating aerodynamic forces that influence the aircraft’s attitude and movement, allowing precise maneuvering in the air. Essentially, they use the physics of airflow around the aircraft to control its path, ensuring safe and efficient flight.
