Aviation Lawyers.com Terms

 


Today's Terms

Propeller Anti-icers:

Definition:
Ice often forms on the propeller before it is visible on the wing. Props are treated with deicing fluid applied by slinger rings on the prop hub or with electrically heated elements on the leading edges.

Adjustable-Pitch Propeller

Definition:
A propeller with blades whose pitch can be adjusted on the ground with the engine not running, but which cannot be adjusted in flight. Also referred to as a ground adjustable propeller. Sometimes also used to refer to onstant-speed propellers that are adjustable in flight.

Structural Ice

Definition:
Pressure on the elevator may help to reattach airflow to the aileron. How quickly a surface collects ice depends in part on its shape. Thin, modern wings will be more critical with ice on them than thick, older wing sections.
