This book introduces certain aspects of mathematics and sciences in general, as they relate to the subject of aviation, from the wheels-up to the wheels-down, and the time in between. The topics includemeteorology, thermodynamics, combustion, drones, mechanics, dynamics,navigation, flight plans, and general aviation-related guidance. The book alsopresents the use of statistical analysis in describing the aircraft characteristics based on performance charts. The book may be used as a reference and includes examples and case studies with step-by-step solutions. Readers new to the field who are working towards their recreational, private,or commercial licenses or one already flying a single piston or multi-engine aircraft will benefit from the content.
Features:
- Includes aviation-related casestudies, where the reader can see how the conceptual material is applied to practicalscenarios.
- Derives equations, displays therelations in diagrams, and shows the applications of statistical methods toanalyses of aircraft performance charts, providing powerful tools foraviation-related research. Mechanicalmodelling of flying objects and weight-and-balance calculation methodologiesare discussed as well.
- Provides pertinent historicalbackground to aviation-related topics such as meteorology, navigation, andmapping, enabling the reader to put in context the current state of are in theseareas.
- Presents in detail all essentialelements of a real-world flight plan, enabling the reader to use themethodology and example when creating their own flight plans.
