    1. This document appears to be an exam for an Aeronautics course, divided into two parts. 2. Part A contains 9 short answer questions defining terms related to aeronautics like specific impulse, jet thrust, Mach number, and components of aircraft like empennage and elevators. 3. Part B contains two longer answer questions, either comparing lift and drag forces on an airfoil or discussing bypass engines and differences between turbojets and turboprops.
