  2. 1920s German sport aircraft

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.

See Gerner G.I and Aileron

Aircraft fabric covering

Aircraft fabric covering is a term used for both the material used and the process of covering aircraft open structures.

See Gerner G.I and Aircraft fabric covering

Anzani 3-cylinder fan engines

From 1905 to 1915, Alessandro Anzani built a number of three-cylinder fan engines and radial engines, one of which powered Louis Blériot's 1909 cross-channel flight.

See Gerner G.I and Anzani 3-cylinder fan engines

Berlin

Berlin is the capital and largest city of Germany, both by area and by population.

See Gerner G.I and Berlin

Biplane

A biplane is a fixed-wing aircraft with two main wings stacked one above the other.

See Gerner G.I and Biplane

Bracing (aeronautics)

In aeronautics, bracing comprises additional structural members which stiffen the functional airframe to give it rigidity and strength under load.

See Gerner G.I and Bracing (aeronautics)

Chord (aeronautics)

In aeronautics, the chord is an imaginary straight line joining the leading edge and trailing edge of an aerofoil.

See Gerner G.I and Chord (aeronautics)

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.

See Gerner G.I and Cockpit

Duralumin

Duralumin (also called duraluminum, duraluminium, duralum, dural(l)ium, or dural) is a trade name for one of the earliest types of age-hardenable aluminium–copper alloys.

See Gerner G.I and Duralumin

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 Gerner G.I and Elevator (aeronautics)

Fin

A fin is a thin component or appendage attached to a larger body or structure.

See Gerner G.I and Fin

Frankfurt

Frankfurt am Main ("Frank ford on the Main") is the most populous city in the German state of Hesse.

See Gerner G.I and Frankfurt

Frankfurt Airport

Frankfurt Airport (Flughafen Frankfurt Main), is Germany's main international airport by passenger numbers, located in Frankfurt, Germany's fifth-largest city.

See Gerner G.I and Frankfurt Airport

Fuselage

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

See Gerner G.I and Fuselage

Germany

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

See Gerner G.I and Germany

Gerner G II R

The Gerner G II or Adler-Gerner G II was a German steel framed, low power biplane, intended both for sports and training in the early 1930.

See Gerner G.I and Gerner G II R

Landing gear

Landing gear is the undercarriage of an aircraft or spacecraft that is used for taxiing, takeoff or landing.

See Gerner G.I and Landing gear

Longeron

In engineering, a longeron or stringer is a load-bearing component of a framework.

See Gerner G.I and Longeron

Radial engine

The radial engine is a reciprocating type internal combustion engine configuration in which the cylinders "radiate" outward from a central crankcase like the spokes of a wheel.

See Gerner G.I and Radial engine

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).

See Gerner G.I and Rudder

Shock absorber

A shock absorber or damper is a mechanical or hydraulic device designed to absorb and damp shock impulses.

See Gerner G.I and Shock absorber

Spar (aeronautics)

In a fixed-wing aircraft, the spar is often the main structural member of the wing, running spanwise at right angles (or thereabouts depending on wing sweep) to the fuselage.

See Gerner G.I and Spar (aeronautics)

Stagger (aeronautics)

In aviation, stagger is the relative horizontal fore-aft positioning of stacked wings in a biplane, triplane, or multiplane.

See Gerner G.I and Stagger (aeronautics)

Tailplane

A tailplane, also known as a horizontal stabilizer, is a small lifting surface located on the tail (empennage) behind the main lifting surfaces of a fixed-wing aircraft as well as other non-fixed-wing aircraft such as helicopters and gyroplanes.

See Gerner G.I and Tailplane

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 Gerner G.I and Tandem

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 Gerner G.I and Trailing edge

Volksflugzeug

The Volksflugzeug (People's Aircraft) was a grand Nazi-era scheme for the mass-production of a small and simple airplane in the 1930s.
