During that flight, I flew at a maximum speed of 180 kilometers per hour, reached an altitude of 7,000 meters, and flew over the 3,180-meter Mount Yari in the Northern Alps.

When the sun rose above the clouds on the horizon, passengers cried out for joy and took photos and recorded it on video through the plane’s windows.

When it glides back down to earth, the HOPE-X will control its attitude and flight path with its Reaction Control System.

He is a Boeing 767 captain and also works as a flight instructor for pilot candidates and as an English language examiner.

It surpasses Taiwan’s 508-meter-high Taipei 101, the building that previously held the title as the world’s tallest building.

Wing aspect ratio helps determine how far a plane can fly with a given fuel load.

During the flight, the pilot changed the plane’s speed, stopped the biofuel engine and restarted it.

Pilots determine the direction of the wind at different altitudes and then make the balloon go up or down to catch the wind currents blowing in the direction they want to go.

During the flight, he receives text messages stating that someone on the plane will die every 20 minutes unless $150 million is transferred into a designated bank account.

But for various reasons, including the need to change materials in the main wings, the plane's first flight has been delayed till next year.

a communication system for sending continuous radio messages to an airplane pilot who is making a ground-controlled approach to landing

Yasumura Yoshiyuki, the captain of the test flight, said the flight was very steady.

After about two and a half hours, he reached an altitude of 39,045 meters, more than three times higher than the altitude of a commercial jet.

I'm in transit between flights now. I've spent 8 hours on a plane so far, after changing planes now it's another two hours.

Sometimes a pilot may think he performed poorly and then find out later that other pilots did even worse.

The probability of this chain of events is one in two million flights - about once every two months at current levels of air traffic.

The probability of this chain of events all happening at once is one in 2 million flights - about once every two months at current levels of air traffic.

So, in the upcoming tests, the new airship will carry solar and fuel cells to supply electricity and prolong the duration of its flight.

The 61-year-old pilot traveled a distance of 26,389 miles (about 42,500 kilometers) in 76 hours and 45 minutes to break the world record for the longest nonstop flight without refueling.

There are also exhibits on various airline-related occupations: pilots, flight attendants, airport staff, aircraft mechanics, ground crew members, and cargo staff.

The 115.7-meter-high tower, one and a half times taller than the old tower, is the world’s third tallest control tower, according to airport officials.

It traveled about 630 kilometers and crossed over France and Luxemburg before landing safely at Brussels Airport in Belgium.

The current rate is about one airplane crash every two weeks, measuring all serious accidents to all types of transport jets.

The use of devices that emit electromagnetic waves is limited on planes because electromagnetic waves may affect the planes' navigation systems.

When the tower is completed in December 2011, it will be 634 meters tall and become the tallest broadcasting tower in the world.

The high-performance aircraft will replace aging transport helicopters and play an important role in preserving regional stability.

an unscheduled airplane landing that is made under circumstances (engine failure or adverse weather) not under the pilot's control

Producing airplanes was a long-held dream of the late Honda Soichiro, Honda Motor Company's founder.
