Aircraft Systems: A Design and Development Guide is a textbook whichcomprehensively covers the design and development of electrical and mechanical systems for fixed wing aircraft. It takes a practical approach and includes examples throughout based on commercial and military aircraft. Academic design studies and methods are presented and technical and mathematical methods of design are also included.Aircraft Systems: A Design and Development Guide provides broad coverage of aircraft systems, covering electrical power systems, hydraulics, pneumatics, flight control actuation and landing gear, to name a few. It includes design guides for each system and also covers environmental concerns for aircraft control systems.
