Aviation Technical Knowledge

Aircraft Technical Knowledge provides students with a practical understanding of how aircraft systems work and how they operated safety and efficiently.

This subject covers.

  • Basic aerodynamics and principles of flight
  • Piston engine operation and engine management
  • Aircraft systems (Fuel, electrical, hydraulic, pitot-static, vacuum
  • Flight instruments and gyroscopic systems
  • Aircraft performance and limitations
  • Weight and balance principles
  • Aircraft maintenance requirements

A strong foundation in Aircraft Tech enables pilots to operate their aircraft confidently, recognize abnormal indications early, and make informed decisions in flight.
