Elevator

The elevator is located at the end of the aircraft, the aircraft tail. It is like the wings horizontally. A rash (Press on billets / ↑), the impetus behind increases, the nose slopes down. By taking (pulling on the stick / ↓), it is reduced, it slopes upward. Thus, a movement to the cross axis. However, we can not at the top of "fly by the strong nose-up" moves ", because it means that the aircraft increases, it loses energy and slows down. If you too steep to the top flight, the plane sometime too slow. The flow in the wings, which provides for the lift, is waning and the plane "sackt by ', ie it loses some altitude. Durchsacken this happens near the bottom, it can lead to a crash. If the control stick away from pressing flies the aircraft, contrary to the ground and is faster. The elevator is also controlled the speed. The other way is also that an aircraft with full increase, although the elevator has been neutral, so the nose toward the horizon. Turn the engine idling, the plane fall. In this case, even a little press, because otherwise the plane is too slow. A flight at a steady level with a constant speed can be calculated only by an adaptation of flight and drive by elevator and fluent regulation can be achieved. Since it may be that the elevator during a long long horizontal flight in a certain position must be kept, there are the so-called trim the elevator to stop that without the force pilots in this position.
