Aircraft structures, powerplants and systems knowledge is one of the fundamental topics a pilot must master to operate an aircraft safely.

The weather and its associated hazards will be a major concern for pilots every time they leap into the sky.

The engines powering aircraft come in many shapes and sizes, but all will usually be one of two types: a piston or gas turbine engine (jet engine).

When we drive on Motorways we typically see a variety of strange situations, for example:• One lane suddenly comes to a stop whilst the other lanes continue• All lanes come to a stop, then restart, only to all stop again a few hundred yards down the road• Yet after another short distance we sometimes accelerate away without seeing any reason for the hold-up• 'Rubbernecking' by drivers causes a carriageway to come to a halt to view something (typically an incident on the other carriageway)• Motorways that otherwise seem to be freely running always seem to clog up as you approach an exitSurprisingly enough, all these phenomena can be explained by the science of queuing, and the aim of this book is to explain this in layman's terms, enabling readers not only to understand why queues develop, but also to try to predict such queues and to get into the correct lane in advance to get past the hold-up as quickly as possible.
