This volume refreshes and expands the professional pilot's knowledge of:
1) High speed and heavy jet aerodynamics;
2) Gas turbine engines and their operation (both turbo-fans and turbo-props);
3) Associated fuel control systems;
4) Propellers; and
5) Flight controls and other systems that make up the very complex but fascinating package that is the modern jet transport aeroplane.
This is an invaluable basis for understanding the operation and limitations of the flight and engine controls and modes of operation of the complex systems on a wide-body jet.
