Describing and Controlling The Three Aircraft Axes

Aircraft movement is controlled by three primary axes: Roll, Yaw, and Pitch. Each axis has a specific purpose and is accessed through different control surfaces: 1. *Roll* (Lateral Axis): - Movement: Rotation around the longitudinal axis (nose to tail) - Purpose: Banking, turning, and balancing - Access: Ailerons (flaps on the wings) and spoilerons (spoilers on top of the wings) 2. *Yaw* (Vertical Axis): - Movement: Rotation around the vertical axis (up and down) - Purpose: Directional control,
