Activity No. 1 Design Concept

The document describes a proposed aircraft design called the "AJ-0705" by student designer Benito Ara Joana Pangan. The AJ-0705 would have a horizontally opposed 4-cylinder piston engine producing 125 hp, a gross weight of 1,673.01 lbs, and seating for 2 people side by side. It would have a fixed tricycle landing gear and straight tapered low wing design. The goal of the design is to create an affordable and environmentally friendly aircraft utilizing available resources that provides pilots a safe and enjoyable flying experience.

1 DESIGN CONCEPT

DESIGNER: BENITO, ARA JOANA PANGAN SUBMISSION DATE: JUNE 22, 2019

INSTRUCTOR: ENGR. NEBUCHADNEZZAR N. TIGLAO RATING:

INTRODUCTION
Nowadays we’re on great expansion on aviation industry, however even
though there’s a growth, do we even have a progress on our aircrafts? Do they
have the right controls to be use, how are their performance? Aircrafts today
are powerful yet has a low maneuverability, having this as a flaw can make a
big difference for each and every aircraft. Having advancement on modern
technology today can help aircrafts be enhanced, but it’s different when it
comes to its design. Good technology but poor design cannot lead the aircraft
industry to its advancement. What if we enhanced its maneuverability? Isn’t
much easier and good experience for every pilot and future pilot? The design
on that will be presented further can help for the advancement of aviation
industry. This recreational designed aircraft will provide you a great experience
that you will never feel before.

As an Aeronautical Engineering student, I’ve became more aware of the


issues and limitations of designing an aircraft here in our country. Issues like
financial crisis and aircraft related policies are the problems often encountered
by our engineers and mechanics. So the first and foremost thing that I should
do is to know what the available resources are and how to use them efficiently
to design an aircraft worthy of today’s technology.

The aircraft I am going to design will be directed more in the aspect of


utilizing the available resources in our area. The aircraft I will be designing will
be called “AJ-0705”. The aircraft will consist of a horizontally opposed air

cooled four-cylinder piston aircraft engine with a power output of 125 hp. The
gross weight of this aircraft is 1,673.01 lb and has a power loading of 13.38
lb/hp. It will have a seating capacity of 2 people with a seating arrangement of
side by side. Landing gears will be a fixed tricycle type and the aircraft wings
will be straight tapered planform placed in low wing position.

CONCLUSION

In designing an aircraft, a plan to make the product to be more


affordable and safe for the environment is a very challenging one, there are
many factors to consider and extensive research must be done before you can
complete the whole project. So, I have come up to a design that you will be
delighted to fly. It is simple and easy to use with a great viewing experience and
outstanding for long flights. Has great aerodynamic performance and supported
by a powerful and efficient engine. With a technology of modern avionics
standards which allow the builders to have a choice for innovation, adaptation
and change for advance generation avionics system, that can address current
and future training demands. The advantage is capable of operating in different
situations, eco-friendly materials and cost-effective maintenance programs for
continuous and budget friendly usage while the disadvantage this aircraft have
small carrying capacity and therefore these are not suitable for carrying bulky
and cheaper goods. Also it is difficult to change some parts in an aircraft
because every change will have a big adjustment in every part.
