Infos

Civil Avionics Systems, Second Edition, is an updated and
in-depth practical guide to integrated avionic systems as applied
to civil aircraft and this new edition has been expanded to include
the latest developments in modern avionics. It describes avionic
systems and potential developments in the field to help educate
students and practitioners in the process of designing, building
and operating modern aircraft in the contemporary aviation
system.

Integration is a predominant theme of this book, as aircraft
systems are becoming more integrated and complex, but so is the
economic, political and technical environment in which they
operate.

Key features:

* Content is based on many years of practical industrial
experience by the authors on a range of civil and military
projects

* Generates an understanding of the integration and
interconnectedness of systems in modern complex aircraft

* Updated contents in the light of latest applications

* Substantial new material has been included in the areas of
avionics technology, software and system safety

The authors are all recognised experts in the field and between
them have over 140 years' experience in the aircraft
industry. Their direct and accessible style ensures that Civil
Avionics Systems, Second Edition is a must-have guide to integrated
avionic systems in modern aircraft for those in the aerospace
industry and academia.
