Electronic Fundamentals for Aircraft Mechanics: EASA Module 4 for B2 Level

p>Today’s aircraft increasingly rely on complex electronic systems, not just for instrumentation, navigation, and communications, but even for flight controls, system monitoring, maintenance planning, and more and more. Knowledge of the fundamentals behind these systems is critical for the B2 avionics and B1 mechanical technician in order to understand and work with these systems. With this full color, highly illustrated book, you will learn by understanding concepts, not just rote memorization and will understand how to apply this knowledge on the job, in the MRO or flightline environment.
This book is fully compliant as EASA Part 66 module 4 for the B2 examinations and has been given approvals by numerous EASA based civil aviation authorities. A simpler version of this book for the A&P or EASA B1 technician is also available from Aircraft Technical Book Company
Also included is a free 2 year revision service. If a change to this book occurs due to regulatory requirements or editorial improvements from 2 years of your purchase, the revised ebook will be sent. Subscription details are on page 2.
