Pokemon NO! Airbus Broughton employees banned from playing Pokemon Go at work...

Airbus Broughton employees banned from playing Pokemon Go at work


Employees working at Airbus’ Brought-on plant have been banned from playing Pokemon Go at work because of security and safety fears.
An email from bosses has been sent to around 6,000 workers forbidding them playing the popular mobile game.
It’s understood the email was sent after a worker played the game whilst on site at the wing-making factory in Flint-shire.
Last month the Bristol Post reported employees at the Airbus site in Filton were “bemused” as dozens of Pokemon fans started flocking to the high security site to play Pokemon Go.

A spokesman for Airbus was reported to have said at the time: “It’s a serious point – working factories are not places where people should be distracted by playing games.

“They can be hazardous places if not treated with respect.”

He added: “Unauthorized photography has never been permitted at Airbus sites, for reasons of commercial confidentiality primarily. “This applies for across the board and not just for this particular game.”
VW and Boeing have already banned employees from playing the monster-catching game.

Aircraft Landing Gear

Image
Why do aircraft have only three landing gear? Why not four? Most aircraft today have three landing gear. Two main landing gear struts located near the middle of the aircraft usually support about 90% of the plane's weight while a smaller nose strut supports the rest. This layout is most often referred to as the "tricycle" landing gear arrangement. However, there are numerous other designs that have also been used over the years, and each has its own advantages and disadvantages. Let's take a closer look at the various undercarriage options available to engineers. Tail-wheel or Tail-dragger :  Gear Though the tricycle arrangement may be most popular today, that was not always the case. The tail-wheel undercarriage dominated aircraft design for the first four decades of flight and is still widely used on many small piston-engine planes. The tail-dragger arrangement consists of two main gear units located near the center of gravity (CG) that support the majority of the p

Adverse yaw!!! Roll causes Yaw and Yaw causes Roll...

Image
Do you know what adverse yaw is and how to solve it? To understand what adverse yaw is, we need to first explain the axes of motion for an  airplane. An aircraft in flight can rotate around three different axes, as illustrated below. Aircraft control surfaces However, the effect of one control surface is not always limited to just pitch, roll, or yaw  alone. When the deflection of one control surface affects more than one of these  orientations, we say that the orientations are coupled. The most important of these  coupled interactions is adverse yaw. To better understand the concept, let's study a  picture of what happens when the pilot deflects the ailerons to roll the aircraft. As you can see, the aircraft rolls because one aileron is deflected downward while the other is deflected upward. Lift increases on the wing with the downward-deflected aileron because the deflection effectively increases the camber of that portion of the wing. Conversely, lift decreases on the wing with
