RAT (ram air turbine) explained

Описание: THE RAT (RAM AIR TURBINE).

This topic has been talked about extensively but I wanted you to seen a deeper understanding of how this unit works and its internal processes.

The idea is simple but what goes behind the engineering is incredibly complex.

A huge thanks to the team of mechanics/engineers that helper me put this together. The incredible graphic design by @fixflytravel and footage taken by @zeto.r @noisy_ratchet @only_fancowl @johnslim to show you the intricacies of this vital component. And a big thank you to PDX Spotting (find him on Twitter) for the opening shot of the 787

As I side, this unit is seldom used and if it is then there is far more issues at hand. The fact that the quadruple source of redundancy exists makes me more secure when I’m in an aircraft.

Thank you all for watching. Have a beautiful day 🤙
