This book presents the fundamental principles of
operating turbine aircraft. The authors cover the basics, all the
while explaining the differences between turbine aircraft and their
less-sophisticated piston counterparts. The well-illustrated
chapters are laid out like a standard aircraft operating manual, so
the information is easy to access. Additional chapters on
high-speed aerodynamics, multipilot crew coordination, wake
turbulence, and high altitude weather are discussed at length. The
book is perfect for not only those involved in pure jet operations;
but for those involved in turboprop, multipilot operations, and
transition training. It is a key tool for a successful turbine
aviation career.
And there's a CD included! Enthusiastic students and instructors will really enjoy the how-turbines-work CD-ROM. This book/CD combo is excellent preparation for pilots entering the commuter or air taxi world. Beech King Air Boeing 727 Cessna Citation Conquest |
