ATPL Airframes and Systems: DemoThis interactive training course teaches the subjects of Airframes, Systems and Emergency Equipment up to the standard required by the EASA air transport pilot’s licence syllabus. The course has been developed by aviation specialists and multimedia designers at Oxford Aviation Academy, one of the world’s leading professional flying training schools.
Though the course is meant primarily for student professional pilots, it will also be valuable to student aircraft engineers as a high quality introduction to airframes and systems. We hope, too, that General Aviation pilots who wish to expand their knowledge will find much to interest them here.
Qualified airline transport pilots might also find much to interest them, in terms of both fulfilling recurrent training requirements and improving their knowledge of aircraft systems. In order to assist students in their preparation for the ATPL examinations, this course includes over 450 EASA ATPL-style questions and answers.
