Standard FAA flight plan form. Type: Type of flight plan. Flights may be VFR, IFR, DVFR, or a combination of types, termed composite. Aircraft Identification: The registration of the aircraft, usually the flight or tail number. Aircraft Type/Special Equipment: The type of aircraft and how it is equipped.
Flight planning is the process of producing a flight plan to describe a proposed aircraft flight. It involves two safety-critical aspects: fuel calculation, to ensure that the aircraft can safely reach the destination, and compliance with air traffic control requirements, to minimise the risk of midair collision.
The successful first flight was not followed up, due to the ungainliness of the composite in takeoff and its vulnerability in flight. From 1921, a series of types were adapted as carriers for gliders used as aerial targets. The Short Mayo Composite mailplane comprised the S.21 Maia carrier flying boat and S.20 Mercury parasite seaplane. It made ...
These alphabetic codes are used on FAA and ICAO flight plan forms to aid flight service station (FSS) personnel in their handling of aircraft. On the FAA domestic flight plan form (FAA Form 7233-1) the equipment code is a single character placed in block 3 (Aircraft Type / Special Equipment) as a suffix to the aircraft type code. A single ...
An example of high-end homebuilt design is Lancair, which has developed a number of high-performance kits. The most powerful is the Lancair Propjet , a four-place kit with cabin pressurization and a turboprop engine , cruising at 24,000 feet (7,300 m) and 370 knots (425 mph, 685 km/h).

It refers to one type of flight plan that must be filed for operation within an Air Defense Identification Zone (the alternative being an IFR flight plan). Flight rules under a DVFR plan are not substantially different from under a VFR plan, except that the pilot is required to notify Air Traffic Control prior to deviating from a DVFR plan ...
Across the following four years, the type flew a cumulative 2,000 flight hours without incident, during which numerous satisfactory performance reports were submitted by trainee pilots. By 2004, sixteen production aircraft had reportedly been produced and delivered to various flying clubs while NAL retained three for its own purposes.
