  2. Wrath 101: Flight paths in Zul'Drak - AOL

    www.aol.com/news/2008-12-11-wrath-101-flight...

    Continuing on from Grizzly Hills, we come a bit north to Zul'Drak, a zone that's apparently one giant troll city. I'm a big fan; some people don't seem to love it much, but presumably everyone ...

  3. Aircraft noise pollution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_noise_pollution

    Noise-generating aircraft propeller. Aircraft noise is noise pollution produced by an aircraft or its components, whether on the ground while parked such as auxiliary power units, while taxiing, on run-up from propeller and jet exhaust, during takeoff, underneath and lateral to departure and arrival paths, over-flying while en route, or during landing.

  4. Airfield traffic pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airfield_traffic_pattern

    A flight path parallel to and in the direction of the landing runway. It is offset from the runway and opposite the downwind leg. Crosswind leg. A short climbing flight path at right angles to the departure end of the runway. Downwind leg. A long level flight path parallel to but in the opposite direction of the landing runway.

  5. World of Warcraft: Dragonflight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../World_of_Warcraft:_Dragonflight

    The game introduced a new feature called Dragonriding, allowing players to raise and customize a dragon that they will be able to use in a new momentum-based flight system using aerial skills. [5] Flying is available from the start of the expansion, without the need to reach the maximum level.

  6. Flight traffic mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flight_traffic_mapping

    Flight Traffic Mapping uses animation to depict flight traffic. The mapping of flights [ 1 ] in real-time is based on a sophisticated air traffic control system that was developed for North America. The air traffic control system is a complex combination of electronics and people that helps guide planes from departure to destination.

  7. Noise control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_control

    An effective model for noise control is the source, path, and receiver model by Bolt and Ingard. [9] Hazardous noise can be controlled by reducing the noise output at its source, minimizing the noise as it travels along a path to the listener, and providing equipment to the listener or receiver to attenuate the noise.

  8. Performance-based navigation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Performance-based_navigation

    Performance-based flight operations are based on the ability to assure reliable, repeatable and predictable flight paths for improved capacity and efficiency in planned operations. The implementation of performance-based flight operations requires not only the functions traditionally provided by the RNAV system, but also may require specific ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guidance,_navigation,_and...

    Guidance, navigation and control (abbreviated GNC, GN&C, or G&C) is a branch of engineering dealing with the design of systems to control the movement of vehicles, especially, automobiles, ships, aircraft, and spacecraft. In many cases these functions can be performed by trained humans.
