What (who) is horizontal distance - definition

PHASE OF FLIGHT IN WHICH A VEHICLE LEAVES CONTACT WITH THE LAND OR WATER SURFACE
Vertical takeoff; Horizontal takeoff; Vertical take off; 🛫; Takeoff distance
  • F/A-18]] taking off from an aircraft carrier
  • undercarriage]]s during takeoff
  • An [[Embraer E-175]] taking off
  • glider]]
  • Columbia]]'' in the process of lifting off from the launch pad during [[STS-1]]
  • Three airliners taking off simultaneously (note similar pitch attitudes)
  • The [[Harrier jump jet]], a [[VTOL]] aircraft

Vertical and horizontal         
  • Spirit level bubble on a marble shelf tests for horizontality
  • Field lines for a non-homogeneous knobbly planet in motion may be curved. The white, red and blue bits illustrate the planet's heterogeneity.
  • On a spherical planet, horizontal planes intersect. In the example shown, the blue line represents the tangent plane at the North pole, the red the tangent plane at an equatorial point. The two intersect at a right angle.
  • The ''y''-axis on the wall is vertical but the one on the table is horizontal.
  • A plumb bob
  • In two dimensions. 1. The vertical direction is designated. 2. The horizontal is perpendicular to the vertical. Through any point P, there is exactly one vertical and exactly one horizontal. Alternatively, one can start by designating the horizontal direction.
  • Strictly, vertical walls are never parallel on the surface of a spherical planet
  • Verticals at two separate points are not parallel. The same holds for their associated horizontal planes.
DIRECTIONS OF STRAIGHT LINES OR PLANES, ORTHOGONAL TO EACH OTHER
Horizontal plane; Vertical direction; Horizontal versus vertical; Geographic plane; Vertical plane; Horizontal and vertical; Horizontal direction; Local vertical; Horizontal distance
In astronomy, geography, and related sciences and contexts, a direction or plane passing by a given point is said to be vertical if it contains the local gravity direction at that point.
Distance         
  • The distances between these three sets do not satisfy the triangle inequality:<math display="block">d(A,B)>d(A,C)+d(C,B)</math>
  • Distance along a path compared with displacement.  The Euclidean distance is the length of the displacement vector.
  • Airline routes between [[Los Angeles]] and [[Tokyo]] approximately follow a direct [[great circle]] route (top), but use the [[jet stream]] (bottom) when heading eastwards. The shortest route appears as a curve rather than a straight line because the [[map projection]] does not scale all distances equally compared to the real spherical surface of the Earth.
  • [[Manhattan distance]] on a grid

Takeoff

Takeoff is the phase of flight in which an aerospace vehicle leaves the ground and becomes airborne. For aircraft traveling vertically, this is known as liftoff.

For aircraft that take off horizontally, this usually involves starting with a transition from moving along the ground on a runway. For balloons, helicopters and some specialized fixed-wing aircraft (VTOL aircraft such as the Harrier and the Bell Boeing V22 Osprey), no runway is needed.
