Avionics System Engineering — Crash Course
CC’s professional avionics engineering training develops practical understanding of communication, electrical power, instrumentation, recording, navigation, flight-control and aircraft safety systems.
Course Description
Avionics systems include the equipment for communication, control, monitoring, navigation, weather and collision-avoidance, including the autopilot. This course provides theoretical knowledge training to participants having experience on multi-engine jet aircraft to perform maintenance, as well as participants from Quality and Planning Departments.
Course Objectives
- Explain the basic principles underlying the key or core avionic systems in modern civil and military aircraft.
- Analyze the system mathematically.
- Show the very wide range of disciplines involved in avionic systems.
- Meet the needs of engineers at all levels working in particular areas of avionics.
