Description
Avionics for the Pilot by Johnston is a straightforward introduction, free of technical jargon, to the many radio and navigational systems commonly used on aircraft. It gives a fundamental overview of the principles and operation of instruments and aids found aboard all types and sizes of aeroplane.
It starts with radio communications such as VHF and HF, in-flight interphone and flight data recorder systems, then moves on to navigation systems, instrument landing, radio altimeter and marker receiver systems. Air traffic control, transponders and weather radar come before a final chapter on likely future developments.
