Le Canard enchaîné euros. Le Canard enchaîné Le Canard enchaîné (; English: "The Chained Duck" or "The Chained Paper", as "canard" is French slang meaning "newspaper"), is a satirical weekly newspaper in France. Its headquarters is in Paris. Founded in 1915 during World War I, it features investigative journalism and leaks from sources inside the French government, the French political world and the French business world, as well as many jokes and humorous cartoons. "Le Canard enchaîné" does not accept any advertisements and is privately owned, mostly by its own employees. The name is a reference to Radical Georges Clemenceau's newspaper "L'homme libre"
Canard (aeronautics) canard is designed to change its angle of incidence to the fuselage without pilot input. In normal flight, the air pressure distribution maintains its angle of attack to the airflow, and therefore also the lift coefficient it generates, to a constant amount. A free-floating mechanism may increase static stability and provide safe recovery from high angle of attack evolutions. However, it negatively affects stall characteristics, since the main wing may stall before the canard. Control surfaces may be added to the free-floating canard, allowing pilot input to affect the generated lift, thus providing pitch control or trim adjustment. The Beechcraft
