Aircraft Classification

There's a list of Aircraft Flight Manuals PDF by Brand above the page.

 

The classification of aircraft can be given according to various criteria - by purpose, by design features, by type of engines, by flight technical parameters and so on and so forth.

 

By appointment

 

Military:

 

attack aircraft, interceptors, fighter jets, fighter bombers, frontline bombers, strategic bombers, missile carriers, torpedo bombers, reconnaissance aircraft, tankers, aircraft carriers, anti-submarine aircraft, patrol aircraft, spotters, military transport aircraft, multi-purpose and special.

 

Civil

 

passenger, transport - cargo transportation, postal - airmail transportation, courier, agricultural, sanitary - emergency,  medical care, firefighters - for extinguishing mainly forest fires, exploration - aerial exploration of mineral resources, experimental - conducting flight experiments (flying laboratory), sports - aviation, training - flight crew training, combat training aircraft - training of military personnel.

 

Take-off weight

 

Super heavy, Heavy - over 136 tons (300 thousand pounds); Medium - from 7 to 136 tons (15-300 thousand pounds); Lungs - less than 7 tons (15,000 pounds); Ultralight.

Takeoff weight classes

 

1st class (75 tons or more); 2nd class (from 30 to 75 tons); 3rd class (from 10 to 30 tons); 4th class (up to 10 t); light motor.

 

By type of power plant:

 

piston, turboprop, turbojet, with rocket engines, with combined powerplant, with electric motors (electric plane)

 

By the number of engines:

 

 

from 1 to10 and 12 engines

 

According to the layout scheme

 

Classification on this basis is the most multivariate. The following is part of the main options.

 

By the number of wings:

 

monoplanes, one and a half plans, biplanes, triplanes, polyplanes

 

By the location of the wing (for monoplanes):

 

high plans, middle plans, low planes, parasol

 

According to the location of the tail:

 

standard layout (tail plumage), flying wing (tailless), tailless, “Duck” (plumage in front);

 

By type, size and number of storeys of the fuselage:

 

single-body: narrow-bodied; wide-body; two-beam scheme ("frame"); bodyless ("flying wing"), double decker aircraft

 

By type of chassis:

 

Land; with wheeled chassis: with tail support; with front support; with bicycle type support; with ski gear; with tracked chassis; hovercraft; seaplanes; amphibians; float; "Flying boats".

 

By flight speed

 

subsonic - the maximum flight Mach number is not more than 0.7-0.8

transonic - maximum flight Mach number from 0.7-0.8 to 1.2

supersonic - maximum flight Mach number from 1.2 to 5

hypersonic - maximum flight Mach number over 5

 

By the nature of the landing organs

 

land, ship, seaplanes, flying submarine.

 

By type of take-off and landing

 

vertical, short, horizontal (i.e. normal) take-off and landing.

 

At the stage of development and development of the model

 

experimental, experienced, serial, single copies of the aircraft.

 

By way of management

 

manned by a pilot, unmanned.

 

By type of flight

 

planes for flying according to the rules of visual orientation, instrument aircraft
