The 5.31 The ramp angle is fully adjustable from 15 to 30 degrees, allowing you to individually target and work all major lower body muscle groups.

The ramp angle is fully adjustable from 15 to 30 degrees and moves up and down at the push of a button, allowing you to individually target and work all major lower body muscle groups.

Normal operations from prepared runways used a tricycle gear, but the struts could "break", or kneel, after landing to place the fuselage closer to the ground and thereby reduce the ramp angle.

But equipment is a big part of that: boots and skis and bindings and mounting positions and ramp angle.

Depending on the airflow characteristics of the engine, it may be desirable to lower the ramp angle or move the cone rearwards to refocus the shockwaves onto the cowl lip to maximise intake airflow.

Fold-up ramps present a lower ramp angle than in-floor ramps; however, in side-entry configurations, they are in the way of the passenger entrance when stowed.

Variable geometry intakes, such as those on Concorde aircraft, vary the ramp angle to focus the oblique shock wave/s onto the intake lip.

The Passat Alltrack has raised ground clearance from 135 to 165 mm which improves approach angle from 13.5 to 16 degrees, departure angle from 11.9 to 13.6 degrees and ramp angle from 9.5 to 12.8 degrees when compared to the standard Passat wagon.

This design is believed to work because the combination of the gentle ramp angle and the curvature profile of the walls creates counter-rotating vortices which deflect the boundary layer away from the inlet and draws in the faster moving air, while avoiding the form drag and flow separation that can occur with protruding scoop designs.
