Aircraft (General) teaches you all you need to know about the systems of a modern light aircraft, so that you can fly your aircraft efficiently and safely, while exercising proper care of the aeroplane itself. Systems covered include the electric, electronic, mechanical and hydraulic systems, the aircraft engine and propeller, and aircraft instruments.
For those who fly, a thorough knowledge of the Principles of Flight is also essential if they are to fully appreciate the flight characteristics of their aircraft and become safe and proficient pilots. This interactive, graphically-rich computer-based training (CBT) course provides pilots, whether student or qualified, with an effective and enjoyable method of studying, and testing themselves in, the scientific principles upon which flight depends.
Includes over 270 JAA/EASA style test questions and answers.
