    The document defines and describes several aerodynamic terms related to aircraft design and flight dynamics. It asks the reader to draw diagrams illustrating wing sweep, taper ratio, mean aerodynamic chord, aircraft pitch angle vs angle of attack, positive control surface deflections, and aircraft axes and forces. It also asks the reader to describe aircraft aspect ratio and how it is calculated for unswept and swept wings. Finally, it asks what the Greek letters σ and δ typically define relating to aircraft flight.
