Newcastle, WA--
In print for more than 30 years and continually updated, this Fourth Edition of
Aircraft Systems for Pilots
by Dale DeRemer serves as the comprehensive college textbook for pilots learning aircraft systems. This is a single-source manual of what pilots should know about basic aircraft systems. It includes a study of the fundamentals of physical matter (from which airplanes are made) and mechanics (how airplane parts act and react). Study of each type of system allows the professional pilot to advance into more complex aircraft.
Subjects covered include physics, aircraft engine types and construction, reciprocating engine theory, engine lubrication and cooling, propellers and governors, fuels and fuel systems, power management, and much more. Study questions conclude each chapter.
