Weather has a major bearing on the outcome of any flight. There have been great strides in the science of meteorology from the early days of flight and is very relevant to the pilots of today. The learning objectives for the JAR ATPL (A) examination require an understanding of the fundamentals of meteorology such as the effect...

Mass and Balance covers the factors governing the loading of an aeroplane to ensure that the longitudinal centre of gravity and mass are within the structural and performance limits. This volume has been written to give you a good understanding of the effects of adding or subtracting a mass from an aeroplane, or moving a mass w...

This volume is designed to teach the practical elements of flight planning and to provide a sound basis for the planning skills required as an Airline Transport Pilot. The learning objectives cover important elements such as fuel planning, the completion of flight plans, the interpretation of meteorological messages and the es...

A sound knowledge of Air Law is fundamental for all pilots. This volume covers the origins of aviation law before covering the practical elements of the rules of the air, personnel licensing and the operational aspects of Air Law as they affect the Airline Transport Pilot. International Agreements and Organisations Anne...

The last 100 years of aviation has seen huge technological advancement in aircraft and systems. However, the human being has not evolved at the same rate - psychologically or physiologically. It is an undeniable fact that human error remains the most significant factor in aircraft accidents. This volume has been structured to ...

Operational Procedures include the requirements for the issue of an Air Operator's Certificate (AOC), Flight Operations and Planning, Low Visibility Operations, and Transoceanic Flight. A significant part of the volume covers Special Operational Procedures and Hazards such as icing, fire, wind shear, wake turbulence, pressuris...

Communication is an essential skill for every pilot. The accurate and concise use of the correct phraseology enhances safety and results in a more efficient flight. Nonetheless, communication by radio is often an area that is dreaded by the student pilot. Whilst these notes are intended specifically to prepare the prospective ...

The principles of airborne navigation have evolved considerably over the last 100 years. With commercial aircraft now capable of flights in excess of 20 hours, with much of the duration spent over the oceans, navigation techniques have had to evolve to meet these new demands. Basics of Navigation Magnetism Compasses C...

Radio Navigation is an essential element of IFR route flying and a subject in which the prospective Airline Transport Pilot must be proficient. This volume provides the student with the necessary information to pass the JAR ATPL (A) examinations in Radio Navigation and provides a grounding for type rating training and commerci...

Airframes & Systems, Electrics, Powerplant, and Emergency Equipment (ASEPE) - Aeroplanes, subject 021, covers a broad swathe of information that is examined in one paper. To make this information manageable, the 021 subject is broken down into three volumes; these are Airframes & Systems [which incorporates Emergency Equipment...

Powerplant covers the syllabus for the JAR-FCL 021 exam paper. This volume gives the reader an insight into the construction, function, and operation of both piston and gas turbine engines. For examination purposes, the engines as described are to be considered 'generic', in reality each manufacturer will achieve the same obje...

It is recognised that not everybody has a natural inclination towards technical subjects such as electricity. These notes are written in an informative style which leads you from the most basic DC circuits to understanding and appreciating the concepts behind advanced aircraft electrical systems. On completion of study, you wi...

One of the fundamental aspects of aircraft cockpit design is how to present flight and navigation data to the crew. The presentation of any information can be in analogue, digital, or electronic form, but in all cases it is up to the crew to interpret and act on the information given. This same data can be supplied to automatic...

Principles of Flight is a fundamental key to many of the other theoretical subjects and of course to flight training. This volume has been written to give the student a good understanding of the principles underlying their practical flying training. Through the use of colored diagrams and limited mathematics, it explores the th...

Aircraft Performance provides a concise but readable set of notes which covers the majority of the JAR syllabus, while emphasizing the operational significance of aircraft performance. To enable this book to stand alone, fundamental mathematics, principles of flight, and engine theory are given in the initial chapters. These c...
