Aircraft Systems:

Understanding Your Airplane

Designed to enhance your understanding of general aviation aircraft operations, this book thoroughly explains each separate system in an easy to follow style. One of the very few books written on the subject and unique in its practical approach, this book:
  • Supplies the systems theory that the Pilot Operating Handbooks (POH) don't address;
  • Provides in-flight trouble-shooting techniques for each system;
  • Describes continuing maintenance procedures in order to improve pilot/mechanic coordination and understanding.

This book is suitable for aircraft owners and commercial pilots who are responsible for overseeing the continuing serviceability of their aircraft, as well as for commercial pilots who may want to extend their knowledge to better manage their aircraft on long-distance or night flights. Take a look at the sections covered in this book (each section covering a different system from the pilot's point of view).
