Do Fighter Jets ( like F-18/F-16) have A/C in their cokpit?

Question:
I always wonder.

Answers:

Really hard question to answer to long to say here click for the question?

Yes, of course there is. Remember that when a plane goes super-sonic, outside panels become very hot due to air friction. Check this rather cool site: http://www.meriweather.com/16/16-layout....

When i go on holiday what medication can i take in my hand luggage?


First locate the joystick, then use your mouse to hover over the small panel just right to the elongated upright panel below the jotstick. It's the a/c control panel.
If you're having problems, here's a direct link to the enlarged a/c panel: http://www.meriweather.com/16/right/air....

i want to learn how to fly but do i have to get a aviation provisional licence first?

no. it's in the pilots flight suit.

Can anyone direct me to the Boeing 777 freighter interior schematic?

if i were to guess i would say no

justify how would u handle a special handling situation in the absense of any information or proper doccuments

I doubt that. At those heights where these plains fly, there is always a negative temperature which means they'd need a heater much more than A/C unit. What I wonder if do they have a GPS system, since they are not on the ground.

whats the fastest jet made or fastest recorded speed by a jet?

No need for it. It's much cooler at 20,000 feet

Any pilot movies out there?

probably not. when you're risking your life like that. air conditioning is the very last thing on your mind.
also if you fly at a high enough altitude you won't need it.
where do you think bomber jackets came from?
you're not exactly baking up there.

give me a historical development of a jet engine, well explained pls.?

The pilots wear "cool suits" that circulate cooled water into their jumpsuits. An "A/C" wouldn't do much while wearing a helmet, gloves, and a full bodysuit. Most pilots do swweat a lot after long flights and have been known to lose weight after intense missions. It does get warm, depending on altitude and "intensity" of activity. P.S. - there is no "wind chill factor" at extreme elevations inside a cockpit...in fact, unless your windows are open. It's not terribly hot up high, but consider that fighter planes do fly low altitudes and yes, get quite warm.

how much time takes...?

Consider the wind chill factor at Mach 1.5. Other than when the plane is taxiing on the ground it is unlikely to encounter an overheating situation in the cockpit.

“How automatic is the automatic pilot on an aeroplane? And can we do away with human pilots altogether?

Air conditioning means changing the condition of the air and I know for certain that some fighters do have it. I can't speak for all. I know not all fighters provide liquid cooling. You have just the same issues in a plane that you do in a car, so if you are on a low level mission on an overcast and rainy day you'd get the inside of the windows misting up. You need to provide dry air on warm wet days or you get condensation on your cooled pilot and on the instruments and cockpit. Or imagine climbing from a 99% humidity 110F Florida runway to 30,000 feet and finding you couldn't see out of the plane any more.

how do they fix bad light dents in big aircraft?


Well, this takes some proving. The following link shows the cockpit of the English Electric lightning and one of the panel variants shows switch 31 as the cockpit a/c.

Why do Pilots say "Roger" ?


The second link shows that the Mirage F1 has air conditioning.

is a ultralight glider classified as a glider or a plane (license or no license)?


The third link shows the F16 has it.

Where can I find videos of planes crash landing on seas and videos of crash from the cockpit and so on?

They all have an environmental system, it runs off the bleed air of the engine, for both heating and cooling.

Does the Boeing 747-400 require more skill to fly than other wide bodied 4 engine jets?

\yea

What is Gyro Drift?

At high altitudes, the temperature is low but the effects of the sun are greater. The canopy of a fighter is like a greenhouse, so while it might be -30F outside, the sun is more intense. You still need airflow, so an airplane, even a fighter, needs an enviromental control system.

Any Good websites for World War 1 Aviation History?


The environmental system runs off of bleed air ( air bled off the turbine of the jet engine) to drive air and heat, but not the same as an automobile.
