Aircraft fairing

An aircraft fairing is a structure whose primary function is to produce a smooth outline and reduce drag.

See LO 120 S and Aircraft fairing

Fuselage

The fuselage (from the French fuselé "spindle-shaped") is an aircraft's main body section.

See LO 120 S and Fuselage

Germany

Germany, officially the Federal Republic of Germany (FRG), is a country in Central Europe.

See LO 120 S and Germany

Hang gliding

Hang gliding is an air sport or recreational activity in which a pilot flies a light, non-motorised, heavier-than-air aircraft called a hang glider.

See LO 120 S and Hang gliding

The Hirth 2704 and 2706 are a family of in-line twin cylinder, two stroke, carburetted aircraft engines, with optional fuel injection, designed for use on ultralight aircraft and especially two seat ultralight trainers, single seat gyrocopters and small homebuilts.

See LO 120 S and Hirth 2704

Homebuilt aircraft

Homebuilt aircraft, also known as amateur-built aircraft or kit planes, are constructed by persons for whom this is not a professional activity.

See LO 120 S and Homebuilt aircraft

List of gliders

This is a list of gliders/sailplanes of the world, (this reference lists all gliders with references, where available) Note: Any aircraft can glide for a short time, but gliders are designed to glide for longer.

See LO 120 S and List of gliders

LTD LO-120S

The LTD LO-120 is a German ultralight aircraft, produced by Logistik-Technik, of Baindt and based on the earlier LO 120 S produced by LO-Fluggerrätebau. LO 120 S and LTD LO-120S are single-engined pusher aircraft.

See LO 120 S and LTD LO-120S

Monoplane

A monoplane is a fixed-wing aircraft configuration with a single mainplane, in contrast to a biplane or other types of multiplanes, which have multiple planes.

See LO 120 S and Monoplane

Motor glider

A motor glider is a fixed-wing aircraft that can be flown with or without engine power. LO 120 S and motor glider are motor gliders.

See LO 120 S and Motor glider

Plywood

Plywood is a composite material manufactured from thin layers, or "plies", of wood veneer that are glued together with adjacent layers, having both glued with each other at right angle.

See LO 120 S and Plywood

Pusher configuration

In aeronautical and naval engineering, pusher configuration is the term used to describe a drivetrain of air- or watercraft with propulsion device(s) after the engine(s).

See LO 120 S and Pusher configuration

Tandem

Tandem, or in tandem, is an arrangement in which a team of machines, animals or people are lined up one behind another, all facing in the same direction.

See LO 120 S and Tandem

Tricycle landing gear

Tricycle gear is a type of aircraft undercarriage, or landing gear, arranged in a tricycle fashion.

See LO 120 S and Tricycle landing gear

Twin-boom aircraft

A twin-boom aircraft has two longitudinal auxiliary booms.

See LO 120 S and Twin-boom aircraft

Ultralight aviation

Ultralight aviation (called microlight aviation in some countries) is the flying of lightweight, 1- or 2-seat fixed-wing aircraft.

See LO 120 S and Ultralight aviation

Ultralight trike

An ultralight trike or paratrike is a type of powered hang glider where flight control is by weight-shift.

See LO 120 S and Ultralight trike

V-tail

The V-tail or vee-tail (sometimes called a butterfly tail or Rudlicki's V-tailGudmundsson S. (2013). "General Aviation Aircraft Design: Applied Methods and Procedures" (Reprint). Butterworth-Heinemann. p. 489., 9780123973290) of an aircraft is an unconventional arrangement of the tail control surfaces that replaces the traditional vertical and horizontal surfaces with two surfaces set in a V-shaped configuration.

See LO 120 S and V-tail
