    The document discusses two aircraft - the Cessna 172 Skyhawk and the Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird. It provides details about each: - The Cessna 172 is a four-seat, single-engine piston aircraft. It was first flown in 1955 and over 44,000 have been built, making it the most produced aircraft in the world. It was widely used for pilot training. - The Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird is an experimental jet-propelled aircraft. It holds the record for fastest jet-propelled aircraft. On its last flight in 1990, it flew from Los Angeles to Washington D.C. in just over 1 hour, averaging over 2,000 miles per

    AIRCRAFT
    STRUCTURE
    INSTRUCTOR: ENGR. BEN
    JOSEPH PEREZ
    ACTIVITY
    1A
    READ THE FOLLOWING
    ARTICLES. THEN FILL THE
    TABLE WITH THE DETAILS
    ASKED.
    a. Arguably the first private aircraft that you have seen is the
    Cessna 172. Over 50% of the world's pilots started their training
    in the Cessna 172. The Cessna 172 Skyhawk is a four-seat, single-
    engine piston aircraft with a high fixed wing made by the Cessna
    Aircraft Company (now known as the Textron Aviation
    Company). First flown in 1955, more Cessna 172s have been built
    than any other aircraft in the world. The Cessna 172 was used in
    most pilot training facilities across the United States for decades
    and was the flight instructor aircraft of choice.
    The Skyhawk 172 appeared in November 1955 as the 1956 model
    and remained in production until replaced by the Skyhawk 172A in
    early 1960. The first production aircraft was equipped with a
    Continental O-300 145 hp (108 kW) six-cylinder, air-cooled
    engine and had a maximum gross weight of 2,200 lb (998 kg).
    More recent models have been fitted with the Lycoming IO-360-
    L2A engine 180hp. The introductory base price of the Cessna 172
    was US$8,995, and a total of 4,195 were constructed over the
    five years. Since that time, several variants developed (172 -
    172S), all with high wings, and as of 2020, Cessna and its
    partners had built more than 44,000 aircraft.

    (SKYHAWK)
    b. No reconnaissance aircraft in history has operated globally in more
    hostile airspace or with such complete impunity than the SR-71, the
    world's fastest jet-propelled aircraft. The Blackbird's performance and
    operational achievements placed it at the pinnacle of aviation
    technology developments during the Cold War. This Blackbird accrued
    about 2,800 hours of flight time during 24 years of active service with
    the U.S. Air Force. On its last flight, March 6, 1990, Lt. Col. Ed Yielding
    and Lt. Col. Joseph Vida set a speed record by flying from Los Angeles
    to Washington, D.C., in 1 hour, 4 minutes, and 20 seconds, averaging
    3,418 kilometers (2,124 miles) per hour. At the flight's conclusion, they
    landed at Washington-Dulles International Airport and turned the
    airplane over to the Smithsonian.

    Lift is in equilibrium to weight, while thrust is in
    equilibrium with drag. The lift force acts at right
    angles to the direction of motion of the aircraft,
    while weight acts at the center of gravity of the
    aircraft.
