For
PPL, CPL & ATPL aspirants who want to become a good pilot, must be well
conversant with the effects while aircraft is flying near to ground. Such
instances are encountered while close to ground during take-off and landing.. At Gracious Avatar during commercial pilot
training classes for PPL, CPL & ATPL aspirants, such instances / effects
will be covered by the expert ground instructors. These are the important topics which would be
covered during CPL & APTL pilot training at Gracious Avatar, Gurgaon
(India).
Ground Effect is the name given to positive influence on the lifting characteristics
of horizontal surfaces of an aircraft wing when it is close to the ground. This
effect is a consequence of the distortion of the airflow below such surfaces
attributable to the proximity of the ground. It applies to both fixed and
rotary wing aircraft.
The
increase in Lift created by Ground Effect comes primarily from a
reduction in the amount of induced drag generated which improves the
lift/drag ratio. In most circumstances, this increased lift is supplemented by
a direct increase in the lift generated by the wing.
