📌 A Great Circle is any circle that circumnavigates the Earth and passes through the center of the Earth. A great circle always divides the Earth in half, thus the Equator is a great circle (but no other latitudes) and all lines of longitude are great circles.
📌 Planes travel along the shortest route in 3-dimensional space. This route is called a geodesic or great circle. While map projections distort these routes confusing passengers, the great circle path is the shortest path between two far locations. This is why pilots fly polar routes saving time and distance.

📌Slip:The aircraft has too much bank for the amount of rudder applied (or not enough rudder for the bank). The aircraft slides inward toward the center of the turn
📌Skid: The aircraft has too much rudder input for the given bank angle (turning too fast for the bank). The tail swings outward. by @pilot_in_command_

• Increased Lift: Flaps change the wing’s shape by increasing its curvature (camber) and often its total surface area. This generates more lift at slower speeds.
• Lower Stall Speed: Because flaps produce more lift, the aircraft requires a lower angle of attack and can fly slower before stalling.
• Increased Drag: Extending flaps creates aerodynamic resistance, which lets the pilot descend at a steeper angle without gaining airspeed.
• Shorter Runways: Higher lift and drag reduce both the takeoff roll and the landing rollout distance. by @pilot_in_command_

📌Angle of Attack (AoA) is the angle between the wing’s chord line (a straight line from the front edge to the back edge of the wing) and the direction of the oncoming air, called the relative wind. by @pilot_in_command_

LST (Licence Skill Test) and LPC (Licence Proficiency Check) are official flight evaluations conducted in a D-level Full Flight Simulator (FFS) or an aircraft to ensure a pilot meets regulatory standards set by aviation authorities (such as EASA, FAA, or DGCA). by @pilot_in_command_

📌Type Rating Instructor (TRI) is a qualified pilot authorized by a civil aviation authority (such as EASA, FAA, or DGCA) to conduct flight instruction for the issuance, revalidation, or renewal of a specific aircraft type rating.
📌Type Rating Examiner (TRE) is a senior pilot authorized by a civil aviation authority (such as EASA, FAA, or DGCA) to conduct skill tests, proficiency checks, and assessments of competence for a specific aircraft type rating. by @pilot_in_command_
