MY DAILY WEEK ONE

In Globalia:

We are giving theoretical and practical classes on aircraft systems, more specifically ATA29 Hydraulic Systems

A hydraulic system uses a fluid under pressure to drive machinery or move mechanical components.

All aircraft make use of some hydraulically powered components. In light, general aviation aircraft, this use might be limited to providing pressure to activate the wheel brakes. In larger and more complex aeroplanes, the use of hydraulically powered components is much more common. Depending upon the aircraft concerned, a single hydraulic system, or two or more hydraulic systems working together, might be used to power any or all of the following components:

  • wheel brakes
  • nose wheel steering
  • landing gear
  • flaps and slats
  • thrust reversers
  • spoilers/speed brakes
  • flight control surfaces
  • etc
Hydraulic system consists of the hydraulic fluid plus three major mechanical components. Those components are the “pressure generator” or hydraulic pump, the hydraulically powered “motor” which powers the component concerned and the system “plumbing” which contains and channels the fluid throughout the aircraft as required.

This week my group (Sergio, Rotger and Ignasi) we have removed the auxiliary hydraulic pump (An electrical-driven emergency hydraulic pump that comes into operation when an engine-driven pump(s) fails. It also provides hydraulic fluid under pressure when the engine is not running. )

The dismantling of the auxiliary pump has been carried out on the Turbocommander 680


The space to work was reduced, but as I give small, I had less problems, so I did all the work, Sergio helped me with the tools.



OUT OF GLOBALIA:

When I get out of class, I go home (Costitx 40km 😭)
It takes between 30-40 min depending on the amount of useless people on the road 👿👿👿
I have to cross: 

Llucmajor

Randa


Montuïri 


And finally Sineu (where they sell very rich sobrassada 😋)




When I get home, there is always my cat waiting for me to arrive 😻😻😻
 

I prepare the 5 minute microwave meal 😑 I dont like cook 


I rest my food and then exercise (CrossFit)


I shower and try to study, I try because I am entertained by anything and many times I start thinking about a thousand things at the same time and I can't concentrate. 😓

    Maria, this is absolutely brilliant. It is just what I wanted! You have improved so much since last year! Thank you

MY FAVORITE PLANE

Imagen
BOEING 737  My favourite aircraft has always been the Boeing 737, the quintessential Boeing model. It has beautiful aesthetics, perfect lines like an eagle. The last model B737 Max was defective and this made me very sad.  Instead of redesigning the plane, they decided to add software that would avoid the problem and because they wanted to save money, they lost innocent lives and world confidence.  Is a short to medium range, twin-engine, jet, narrow-body airliner manufactured and developed by the American company Boeing Commercial Airplanes. The Boeing 737 is the highest selling turbofan passenger aircraft in aviation history. This model has been manufactured without interruption by Boeing since 1967. It is the most widely used model on domestic flights in the United States. The Boeing 737-100 was christened on 17 January 1967 and made its first flight on 9 April of the same year.  Lufthansa inaugurated its services with this aircraft on February 10,

D-CHECK

Imagen
Aircraft maintenance   checks are periodic inspections that have to be done on all commercial and civil aircraft after a certain amount of time or usage. Military aircraft normally follow specific maintenance programmes which may, or may not, be similar to those of commercial and civil operators The D check, sometimes known as a "heavy maintenance visit" (HMV), is by far the most comprehensive and demanding check for an airplane. This check occurs approximately every 6-10 years. It is a check that more or less takes the entire airplane apart for inspection and overhaul. Even the paint may need to be completely removed for complete inspection of the fuselage metal skin. Such a check can generally take up to 50,000 man-hours, and 2 months to complete depending on the number of technicians involved. It also requires the most space of all maintenance checks, and as such must be performed at a suitable maintenance base. The requirements and the tremendous effort involved in

JET ENGINE

TURBOJET The basic componets are still the compressor, combustor, and turbine. The turbojet gets its propulsive power from reaction to the flow of hot gases. Air enters the inlet and ts pressure is increased by the compressor. Fuel is added in the combustor and the expansion created by heat forces the turbine wheel to rotate. The turbine in turn drives the compressor. The energy remaining downstream of the turbine in the tailpipe accelerates into the atmosphere and creates the reaction we refer to as thrust. TURBOFAN The turbofa, in effect, is a ducted, multi-blade propeller driven by a gas turbine engine. This fan procedures a pressure ratio on the order of 2:1 or two atmospheres of compression. Generrally, turbofan contain 20 to 40 fixed pitch blades. They were developed to provide a compromise between the best features of the turbejet type cruise speed capability and yet retains some of the short field takeoff capability of the  turboprop.
