frost, ice, or snow adhering to any rotor blade, propeller, windshield, stabilizing or control surface; to a power plant installation; or to an airspeed, altimeter, rate of climb, flight attitude instrument system, or wing, except that takeoffs may be made with frost under the wing in the area of the fuel tanks if authorized by the FAA.” (FAR, 2016) There are always exceptions to this rule including meeting training requirements of FAR 135.341 and meeting additional criteria outlined in FAR 135.227

Albatross secrets for energy efficient long distance flying An albatross crosses thousands of kilometres of ocean during a single foraging trip. Once airborne the albatross does not flap its wings and expends almost no energy through muscle use. For many years scientists have wondered how the energy requirement for this foraging strategy is sustained. New work has now uncovered the albatrosses secrets of flying for free.

violently on the ground. But before Dog bites into her, the Human with the leash says “bad Dog” and Dog walks away. I see Mother bleeding on the grass while her wings cover her face. “Mother!” I scream. She looks up at me from the ground, a brown wriggling noodle-thing in her mouth. She flutters her bloodied wings and tries to stand up. Her wings work, but her feet do not. “Fly, Mother!” I tell her, and she does. She tears through the air towards Nest like a missile, but misses by a few feet. The second

They don't need speed though because their prey can't hear them coming.They can fly without making a sound. Barn owls have soft fringes on the leading edges of their wing feathers. Scientists believe this causes silent flight. Their bones arre very light. This is great for the barn owl because when it flys it doesn't have a lot of weight to carry around. The barn owl only weighs just below or above a pound. Their bones

Throughout The Awakening, Kate Chopin conveys her ideas by using carefully crafted symbols that reflect her characters' thoughts and futures. One of the most important of these symbols, the bird, appears constantly, interwoven in the story to provide an insight to the condition of Edna's and her struggle. At each of the three stages of her struggle, birds foreshadow her actions and emphasize the actions' importance while the birds' physical state provides an accurate measure of that of Edna's.

revolution of a discrete segment of the harmony, regularly the last 20-30%, in respect to whatever remains of the airfoil. The straightforwardness and adequacy of these gadgets has prompted their close pervasive use as the control effectors of settled wing airplane and as high lift devises for departure and landing. They have likewise been utilized for quite a while as a part of an extensive variety of utilizations over an expansive range of liquid control applications, including helicopter rotors, ship

The zombies body was in remarkably good shape, the flesh wounds had healed quickly due to the nano tech. Zero stretched the things tendons before waking Dana from her slumber. She had taken a knock during the crash and had suffered a minor concussion. The wild look in her eyes was enough to tell him she was wide awake now and he left her alone. Something about this body disturbed the human and it was something Zero couldn't understand. The Tic pod was cramped at best holding a small squad and not

One after the other, they removed their nappies and swished them in the water until they were spotless white. They hung them on the warm air vent to dry. Carefully, so as not to get their wings wet, they took it in turns to wash. They leaned back in the water as they wiggled their bums. When it was Hop’s turn, he farted in the water. The bubbles rose to the surface. And popped. They were popping farts that smelt of sherry! They dried their bottoms on a pile of makeup remover pads. Honesty inspected

Scrutiny over skin colour seems ever so prevalent, the idea of diverse culture is ignored unless it is the white way; otherwise, it is too primitive. In a foreign land, guns and white skin give the right to rip children away from their families and culture. Yet it is for their own good, is it not? The children are like little birds trapped in a fallen nest and about to become prey to something new. A new predator that they haven’t seen, but with its appearance it forces its new ways onto those around

which creates a heavy parallelism in midst of the contrast. This adds a rhythmic and alliterative pattern in the riddle, giving it more unity and direction. Furthermore, the rhythmic repetition of the ‘sw’ sound may imitate the sound of the bird’s wings during flight. The ‘sw’ sound can be considered a clue left for the audiences to identify the bird species in the riddle. The
