Do you have any idea?
What is An AIRCRAFT Axis?
Axis, as applied to aviation, is defined as "an imaginary line about which a body rotates".
The three axes on which the aircraft moves are:
- Longitudinal
- Lateral
- Vertical
Types of axes in an aircraft
"ROLLING AXIS"
It is a line drawn from the tail to the nose of the vehicle in the normal direction of flight, or the direction the pilot faces, identical to the waterline of a ship.
longitudinal Axis
"PITCH"
An aircraft's main body. The imaginary line that runs from wingtip to wingtip and around which an airplane pitches. Lift is the force produced primarily by the motion of air moving over the wings of an airplane.
Lateral AXis
"YAW"
Aircrafts travels from top to bottom through the center of the plane, passing via the center of gravity. Yaw is the movement around this axis, while directional control is the control around this axis.
vertical Axis

Return
Return
Flaps
It controls motion around the longitudinal axis (roll). The ailerons are located at the rear of the wing, one on each side.
Ailerons
Trim Tabs
Return
It controls rotation around the lateral axis (pitch). It is usually located on the tail of the aircraft and serves.
Elevators
Return
Vertical Stabilizer
It controls movement around the vertical axis (yaw). The rudder is located on the tail of the aircraft.
