Yaw string used in front of the cockpit of an F-14D Tomcat. In flight, pilots are instructed to step on the head of the yaw string; the head is the front of the string, where the string is attached to the aircraft. If the head of the yaw string is to the right of the yaw string tail, then the pilot should apply right rudder pressure.
In aeronautics, tufts are pieces of yarn or string, typically around 15 cm (6 in) long, attached to an aircraft surface in a grid pattern and imaged during flight. Their motion can be observed and recorded to locate air flow features such as boundary layer separation and reattachment.
This is typically controlled by the rudder at the rear of the airplane. Roll (bank) – in which one wing of the airplane moves up and the other moves down. This is typically controlled by ailerons on the wings of the airplane. Coordinated flight requires the pilot to use pitch, roll and yaw control simultaneously. See also flight dynamics.
The rudder is a fundamental control surface which is typically controlled by pedals rather than at the stick. It is the primary means of controlling yaw—the rotation of an airplane about its vertical axis. The rudder may also be called upon to counter-act the adverse yaw produced by the roll-control surfaces.
Spinning is a twisting technique to form yarn from fibers.The fiber intended is drawn out, twisted, and wound onto a bobbin.A few popular fibers that are spun into yarn other than cotton, which is the most popular, are viscose (the most common form of rayon), animal fibers such as wool, and synthetic polyester.

T-shirt yarn is a recycled yarn made from the same fabric as is used in T-shirts and other clothes. It is often made from the remainder fabric of clothing manufacture, and therefore is considered a recycled and eco-friendly product. It can also be made at home out of used clothing.
Apple. Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) is a company that people just love to doubt. The stock started 2024 with a pretty expensive multiple, only to end the year with an even pricier one (shares go for almost ...
Aircraft dope is a plasticised lacquer that is applied to fabric-covered aircraft. It tightens and stiffens fabric stretched over airframes, which renders them airtight and weatherproof, increasing their durability and lifespan. [1] [2] The technique has been commonly applied to both full-size and flying models of aircraft. [3] [4]
