Now covering both conventional and unmanned systems, this is a significant update of the definitive book on aircraft system design
Design and Development of Aircraft Systems, Second Edition is for people who want to understand how industry develops the customer requirement into a fully integrated, tested, and qualified product that is safe to fly and fit for purpose. This edition has been updated to take into account the growth of unmanned air vehicles, together with updates to all chapters to bring them in line with current design practice and technologies as taught on courses at BAE Systems and Cranfield, Bristol and Loughborough universities in the UK.
Design and Development of Aircraft Systems, Second Edition
Design and Development of Aircraft Systems, Second Edition has been written to be generic and not to describe any single process. It aims to complement other volumes in the Wiley Aerospace Series, in particular Aircraft Systems, Third Edition and Civil Avionics Systems by the same authors, and will inform readers of the work that is carried out by engineers in the aerospace industry to produce innovative and challenging – yet safe and reliable – systems and aircraft.
Essential reading for Aerospace Engineers.

In the second edition of Design and Development of Aircraft Systems, Ian Moir and Allan Seabridge provide a straightforward introduction to how aircraft systems are designed and evolved, explaining to the reader the means by which the systems of a complex aircraft emerge from a customer requirement and become reality as individual sub-systems; as an integrated overall system; and as a complete fit-for-purpose aircraft. This edition has been updated with extensive new material on unmanned air vehicles, together with updates to all chapters to bring them in line with current design practice and technologies.
For many engineers, the design and development activity takes place at a single domain level—the fuel system, the hydraulic system, flight control system, etc. Increasingly, however, there is a need to consider how these domains integrate into the bigger picture: for example, the engineer designing the display system will need to consider the entire weapons system. Concentrating on the product life cycle, the design and development process, and the skills required to develop a product as complex as an aircraft, Design and Development of Aircraft Systems, 2nd edition is a book for people who want to understand how industry develops a fully integrated, tested, and qualified product that is safe to fly and fit for purpose.
Key features:
Commercial and military aerospace engineers, designers, operators, maintenance crew and those studying to become part of the aerospace industry will find Design and Development of Aircraft Systems, 2nd edition an invaluable resource.
