Question

Which of the following is incorrect?

(a) Cockpit is always located directly above the wing

(b) Lofting is mathematical model for skin

(c) Conceptual design is first phase of the design process

(d) Cockpit design is affected by visual requirements of pilot

I got this question in an online quiz.

Query is from Crew Station topic in section Crew Station, Passengers, and Payload of Aircraft Design

Answer 1

Correct choice is (a) Cockpit is always located directly above the wing

Explanation: Cockpit is not always located at the wing. Lofting is done to provide mathematical model of our aircraft. Conceptual design is the first phase of aircraft design process. In conceptual design we will be dealing with some fundamental principles of design of an aircraft.
