Airframe Systems is part of Dale Crane’s four-part Aviation Mechanic Series textbooks created to set the pace for maintenance technician training and attain a level of quality that surpasses all other maintenance textbooks on the market. Airframe Systems covers the various systems involved with the airframe, encompassing electrical, fuel, cabin atmosphere control, instruments, communication and navigation, ice and rain control, fire protection, and auxiliary systems as well as aircraft inspections.
First published in 1994, this new fourth edition features full-color throughout, with updated content reflecting regulatory changes to 14 CFR Part 147 and the Airman Certification Standards for Aviation Mechanics (FAA-S-ACS-1). Originally written by industry expert Dale Crane, this edition and its companion Airframe Structures textbook in the series have been reviewed and updated by an editorial team consisting of aviation mechanics, inspection authorization (IA) holders, university professors, aircraft owners, and aviation maintenance journalists.
Dale Crane’s textbooks consist of the most complete and up-to-date material for Aviation Mechanic training. The text meets 14 CFR Part 147 curriculum requirements, covers the subjects outlined in the Airmen Certification Standards for Aviation Mechanics, and prepares applicants for all subjects appearing on the FAA Knowledge Exams. Designed for at-home, classroom, or university-level training, this comprehensive textbook includes color charts, tables, and illustrations; study questions for each section, with accompanying answer keys; and an extensive glossary, index, and additional career information.
