Butterworth-Heinemann’s Aircraft Engineering Principles and Practice Series provides students, apprentices and practicing aerospace professionals with the definitive resources to advance their aircraft engineering maintenance studies and career.

This book provides an introduction to the principles of aircraft digital and electronic systems. It is written for anyone pursuing a career in aircraft maintenance engineering or a related aerospace engineering discipline, and in particular will be suitable for those studying for licensed aircraft maintenance engineer status as part of an EASA or FAR-147 approved course or taking Aerospace Engineering City and Guilds modules, EDEXCEL National Units, EDEXCEL Higher National Units or a Degree in aircraft engineering.

* Covers the essential principles & knowledge base required by Airframe & Propulsion (A&P) Mechanics for Modules 5, 11 and 13 of the EASA Part-66 syllabus & BTEC National awards in aerospace engineering
* Self-test questions, exercises & multiple choice questions to enhance learning for both independent & tutor-assisted study
* Online image bank for use in lectures & teaching materials

   The only single coverage book I have found for EASA Part 66. It came close to me passing Module 5 first time. It lacks enough depth of coverage on some areas like fibre optic (how do you join broken fibre optic together?) and more could be done on LCDs and probably a little more on logic.

   It is pretty good but there are numerous typographical and wrong answers to questions which do not help. (e.g. bidirectional is two-way not one way).

   The ideal book for EASA part 66 A, B1 or B2 students or any JAR-66 standard.

   This book is for modules 5 & avionics of modules 11 & 13.

   This goes well beyond the A&P scope.

   There are many examples to practice.

   This is the best book to cover Module 5 of the JAR 66…It has the same Syllabas and organized chapters…

   I was looking for a book to help explain aircraft digital bus systems to students. This book seemed to me to be more on the line of engineering. I did get some useful information, but not as much as I thought, especially when it has “Maintenance” in the title.
