Optical rotation is a fundamental phenomenon observed when plane-polarised light traverses chiral media. This intrinsic property of chiral molecules renders them capable of rotating the plane of ...
The first plane to break the sound barrier in level flight was a rocket plane – the Bell X-1 in 1948. The North American X-15 broke many speed and altitude records in the 1960s and pioneered engineering concepts for later aircraft and spacecraft.

Rebellious pilot Brodie Torrance faces a tough challenge when his plane is struck by lightning, forcing him to land on an island run by a gang of militia. The title suits this film beautifully, plain and simple, monosyllabic, the perfect film to switch your mind off to, and embrace your inner bloke.
The essential components of an airplane are a wing system to sustain it in flight, tail surfaces to stabilize the wings, movable surfaces to control the attitude of the plane in flight, and a power plant to provide the thrust necessary to push the vehicle through the air.
