Aileron
An aileron (French for "little wing" or "fin") is a hinged flight control surface usually forming part of the trailing edge of each wing of a fixed-wing aircraft.
Aircraft fairing
An aircraft fairing is a structure whose primary function is to produce a smooth outline and reduce drag.
See CANSA FC.20 and Aircraft fairing

The Bréguet 690 and its derivatives were a series of light twin-engine ground-attack aircraft that were used by the French Air Force in World War II. CANSA FC.20 and Bréguet 693 are twin piston-engined tractor aircraft.

The Cannone-Mitragliera da 37/54 (Breda) was a automatic anti-aircraft gun produced by the Breda company in Italy.
See CANSA FC.20 and Cannone-Mitragliera da 37/54 (Breda)
Cantilever
A cantilever is a rigid structural element that extends horizontally and is unsupported at one end.
See CANSA FC.20 and Cantilever
Close air support
In military tactics, close air support (CAS) is defined as aerial warfare actions—often air-to-ground actions such as strafes or airstrikes—by military aircraft against hostile targets in close proximity to friendly forces.
See CANSA FC.20 and Close air support
Cockpit
A cockpit or flight deck is the area, on the front part of an aircraft or spacecraft, from which a pilot controls the aircraft.
Conventional landing gear
Conventional landing gear, or tailwheel-type landing gear, is an aircraft undercarriage consisting of two main wheels forward of the center of gravity and a small wheel or skid to support the tail.
See CANSA FC.20 and Conventional landing gear
Daimler-Benz DB 601
The Daimler-Benz DB 601 was a German aircraft engine that was built during World War II.
See CANSA FC.20 and Daimler-Benz DB 601
Dihedral (aeronautics)
In aeronautics, dihedral is the angle between the left and right wings (or tail surfaces) of an aircraft.
See CANSA FC.20 and Dihedral (aeronautics)
Douglas A-20 Havoc
The Douglas A-20 Havoc (company designation DB-7) is an American light bomber, attack aircraft, night intruder, night fighter, and reconnaissance aircraft of World War II. CANSA FC.20 and Douglas A-20 Havoc are twin piston-engined tractor aircraft.
See CANSA FC.20 and Douglas A-20 Havoc
Elevator (aeronautics)
Elevators are flight control surfaces, usually at the rear of an aircraft, which control the aircraft's pitch, and therefore the angle of attack and the lift of the wing.
See CANSA FC.20 and Elevator (aeronautics)
Empennage
The empennage, also known as the tail or tail assembly, is a structure at the rear of an aircraft that provides stability during flight, in a way similar to the feathers on an arrow.
Fiat A.74
The Fiat A.74 was a two-row, fourteen-cylinder, air-cooled radial engine produced in Italy in the 1930s as a powerplant for aircraft.
Fiat A.80
The Fiat A.80 was an 18-cylinder, twin-row, air-cooled, radial aircraft engine produced during World War II.
Fin
A fin is a thin component or appendage attached to a larger body or structure.
Italy
Italy, officially the Italian Republic, is a country in Southern and Western Europe.
Kawasaki Ki-45
The Kawasaki Ki-45 Toryu (屠龍, "Dragonslayer") was a two-seat, twin-engine heavy fighter used by the Imperial Japanese Army in World War II. CANSA FC.20 and Kawasaki Ki-45 are twin piston-engined tractor aircraft.
See CANSA FC.20 and Kawasaki Ki-45
Leading edge
The leading edge is the part of the wing that first contacts the air;Crane, Dale: Dictionary of Aeronautical Terms, third edition, page 305.
See CANSA FC.20 and Leading edge
Machine gun
A machine gun (MG) is a fully automatic and rifled firearm designed for sustained direct fire with rifle cartridges.
See CANSA FC.20 and Machine gun
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.
Petlyakov Pe-2
The Petlyakov Pe-2 (Петляков Пе-2 — nickname «Пешка» (Pawn); NATO reporting name: Buck) was a Soviet twin-engine dive bomber used during World War II. CANSA FC.20 and Petlyakov Pe-2 are twin piston-engined tractor aircraft.
See CANSA FC.20 and Petlyakov Pe-2
Rogožarski R-313
The Rogozarski R-313 (Рогожарски Р-313 in Serbian) was a two-seat twin-engined monoplane designed as a fighter/light bomber/reconnaissance aircraft in Yugoslavia before World War II. CANSA FC.20 and Rogožarski R-313 are twin piston-engined tractor aircraft.
See CANSA FC.20 and Rogožarski R-313
Rudder
A rudder is a primary control surface used to steer a ship, boat, submarine, hovercraft, airship, or other vehicle that moves through a fluid medium (usually air or water).
Savoia-Marchetti SM.89
The Savoia-Marchetti SM.89 was an attack aircraft designed by Alessandro Marchetti and built by Savoia-Marchetti. CANSA FC.20 and Savoia-Marchetti SM.89 are 1940s Italian attack aircraft and twin piston-engined tractor aircraft.
See CANSA FC.20 and Savoia-Marchetti SM.89
Trailing edge
The trailing edge of an aerodynamic surface such as a wing is its rear edge, where the airflow separated by the leading edge meets.
See CANSA FC.20 and Trailing edge
Trim tab
Trim tabs are small surfaces connected to the trailing edge of a larger control surface on a boat or aircraft, used to control the trim of the controls, i.e. to counteract hydro- or aerodynamic forces and stabilise the boat or aircraft in a particular desired attitude without the need for the operator to constantly apply a control force.
Wing root
The wing root is the part of the wing on a fixed-wing aircraft or winged-spaceship that is closest to the fuselage,Peppler, I.L.: From The Ground Up, page 9.
Wing tip
A wing tip (or wingtip) is the part of the wing that is most distant from the fuselage of a fixed-wing aircraft.
