Aircraft Materials, Hardware and Structures

The need for a definitive series of textbooks dedicated to Aircraft Engineering maintenance has never been greater. Employers are increasingly looking at FE qualifications to provide future engineers. The internationally recognised standard, Joint Aviation Requirement Part 66, Maintenance Personnel Licensing (JAR 66) sets a new standard for licenses, with specific focus on quality at source, human factors awareness, and clear accountability for safety.Aircraft Structural Maintenance and Repair will cover modules 6, 7, and 11 of the Joint Aviation Authorities (JAR) syllabi, to a depth and level appropriate for Aircraft Maintenance Technicians and Engineers. It will also be a useful source of reference for those engaged in the management and planning of structural maintenance and repair within the Airline Industry.The book has also been designed to accommodate those following Aerospace I.Eng.Degree programmes, with an Aircraft Structures content, as well as covering the knowledge requirements for the appropriate Units/Modules of the City and Guilds and EDEXCEL Aerospace Engineering Programmes. It also contains valuable information for those practising as Aircraft Engineers within HM Forces.
