Aircraft Engineering Principles is the essential text for anyone studying for licensed A&P or Aircraft Maintenance Engineer status. The book is written to meet the requirements of JAR-66/ECAR-66, the Joint Aviation Requirement (to be replaced by European Civil Aviation Regulation) for all aircraft engineers within Europe, which is also being continuously harmonised with Federal Aviation Administration requirements in the USA. The book covers modules 1, 2, 3, 4 and 8 of JAR-66/ECAR-66 in full and to a depth appropriate for Aircraft Maintenance Certifying Technicians, and will also be a valuable reference for those taking ab initio programmes in JAR-147/ECAR-147 and FAR-147. In addition, the necessary mathematics, aerodynamics and electrical principles have been included to meet the requirements of introductory Aerospace Engineering courses. Numerous written and multiple choice questions are provided at the end of each chapter, to aid learning.

The Aircraft Engineering Principles and Practice Series provides students, apprentices and practicing aerospace professionals with the definitive resources to take forward their aircraft engineering maintenance studies and career. This book provides a detailed introduction to the principles of aircraft electrical and electronic systems. It delivers the essential principles and knowledge required by certifying mechanics, technicians and engineers engaged in engineering maintenance on commercial aircraft and in general aviation. It is well suited for anyone pursuing a career in aircraft maintenance engineering or a related aerospace engineering discipline, and in particular those studying for licensed aircraft maintenance engineer status. The book systematically covers the avionic content of EASA Part-66 modules 11 and 13 syllabus, and is ideal for anyone studying as part of an EASA and FAR-147 approved course in aerospace engineering. All the necessary mathematical, electrical and electronic principles are explained clearly and in-depth, meeting the requirements of EASA Part-66 modules, City and Guilds Aerospace Engineering modules, BTEC National Units, elements of BTEC Higher National Units, and a Foundation Degree in aircraft maintenance engineering or a related discipline. * The perfect blend of academic and practical information for aircraft engineering and maintenance * Addresses the avionic content of Modules 11 and 13 of the EASA Part-66 syllabus and BTEC National awards in areospace engineering * Comprehensive and accessible, with self-test questions and multiple choice revision papers designed to prepare readers for EASA examination.
Covering principles and applications of analog and digital electronics, this volume is an ideal pre-degree text covering major areas of 21st century electronics.
The essential textbook for students following pre-degree level courses, technician engineers, and all who need to access a straightforwardly written reference covering all the major areas of 21st century electronics. Mike Tooley's classic reference texts Electronic Circuits Handbook and Electronics Circuits Students Handbook have long offered a unique coverage of analog and digital electronics and applications in a single volume. The two versions of this title have now been combined to produce a major textbook which combines comprehensive coverage of principles and applications with readability and ease of use. New material on communications engineering, test and measurement and fault-finding bring the coverage up-to-date with the latest developments and reinforce the relevance of this text for a wide range of electronics courses, for maintenance and operations engineers as well as those following traditional electronics courses. The coverage has been matched to the latest UK pre-degree syllabuses: AVCE and the new 2001/2 BTEC National specifications, as well as the relevant City & Guilds certificates and NVQ schemes. However, the book is designed as a reference text, meeting the needs of students, amateurs and professionals.
Engineering A Level' provides a chapter by chapter match to the compulsory AS and A2 units from Edexcel. Full coverage is given to the three units required at AS Level, and the three additional A2 units required for completion of the A Level award.
Mike Tooley’s accessible, activity-based approach introduces students to engineering and the pivotal role it plays in the modern world, as well as providing opportunities to develop engineering skills and acquire the knowledge needed for the latest GCSE schemes from Edexcel, OCR and AQA. This book builds on the success of Mike Tooley’s GNVQ and BTEC National Engineering texts, which have helped thousands of students to gain their first engineering qualification. The text, case studies, activities and review questions included throughout this book are designed to encourage students to explore engineering for themselves through a variety of different learning experiences. The practical process of designing and making a product offers the chance to develop the skills of engineering drawing, basic electronics and workshop techniques. Case studies, and research work using the internet and other sources, introduce the wide variety of engineering sectors and employment, from the automotive industry to telecommunications. With the first three chapters matched to the assessed units of the GCSE programme, the second edition also includes an additional topic-based chapter introducing the essential maths and science required for the successful study of engineering. All examples relate directly to engineering applications, emphasising the use of maths and science in the understanding of fundamental engineering concepts. New topics include: units; formulae; measurement; data; linear and angular motion; force, mass and acceleration; and properties of engineering materials. Mike Tooley is formerly Director of Learning at Brooklands College, Surrey, and is the author of many best-selling engineering and electronics books.
This course book covers the compulsory core units of the 2010 BTEC First Engineering schemes from Edexcel. It gives full coverage of the common core units for the certificate/diploma (units one and two), plus the additional compulsory units for diploma students (units three and four), for all pathways.
Used alongside the students' text, Engineering A Level, this pack offers a complete suite of teaching resource material and photocopiable handouts for the compulsory AS and A2 units of the 2005 GCE Engineering syllabus from Edexcel. Coverage is given to the three units required at AS Level, and the 3 additional A2 units required for completion of the A Level award. Mike Tooley provides the essential resources needed by busy teachers and lecturers, as well as a bank of student-centred practical work and revision material, that will enable students to gain the skills, knowledge and understanding they require.
