  Chapter 7: Aircraft Systems › Reciprocating Engines

  integration of computerized engine management systems has improved fuel efficiency, decreased emissions, and reduced pilot workload. Reciprocating engines operate on the basic principle of converting chemical energy (fuel) into mechanical energy. This conversion occurs within the cylinders of the engine…

  covers the primary systems found on most aircraft. These include the engine, propeller, induction, ignition, as well as the fuel, lubrication, cooling, electrical, landing gear, and environmental control systems. An aircraft engine, or powerplant, produces thrust to propel an aircraft ... design, reciprocating engine technology has improved dramatically over the past two decades.

  Chapter 10: Weight and Balance › Control › Management of Weight and Balance Control

  Weight and balance control should be a matter of concern to all pilots. The pilot controls loading and fuel management (the two variable factors that can change both total weight and CG location) of a particular aircraft. The aircraft owner…
