Unformatted sample text from the term paper:
The aviation system is composed of a complex assortment of human and technical elements. Foremost in this system, of course, are plane
and pilot. Just as the planes performance depends on hundreds of tangible parts, parts complimented and interlinked with almost as much equipment, the pilots performance is linked to his
or her knowledge and skill and even to less tangible factors such as culture and personality. The aviation system, therefore, is a blend of the tangible and the
intangible. The specifics of this blend determine performance. Listing each feature of this blend would be an impossibility. If we were to list just seven of the
most critical components of the blend the tangible objects would undoubtedly include the planes wing, its engine, and its functionality while the less tangible aspects would include the pilots vision,
his motor skills, his education/experience, and his cognitive function. In some respects airplanes are simple devices. They consist of a
wing and, at least in the case of powered flight, an engine to move that wing through the air. Wings and engines alike, of course, come in many sizes
and shapes. To narrow the field somewhat, however, it is useful to concentrate on just one type of aircraft. Because of its versatility, the single-seat military U-2 aircraft
(an aircraft commonly known as the "Dragon Lady") serves as an excellent subject. The Dragon Lady, manufactured by Lockheed Aircraft Corp.,
functions primarily in high-altitude reconnaissance. The aircraft is functional in both day and night conditions and in practically any weather. It provides critical support, therefore, to U.S. ground
