Civil Avionics Systems

This book is an updated in-depth study and explanation of avionics as applied to civil aircraft. Substantial new content covers changes in avionics technology, software, and system safety. Ian Moir and Allan Seabridge are both highly experienced in the aircraft industry and are also involved in devising and delivering training courses.

Civil Avionics Systems, Second Edition, is an updated and in-depth practical guide to integrated avionic systems as applied to civil aircraft and this new edition has been expanded to include the latest developments in modern avionics. It describes avionic systems and potential developments in the fi eld to help educate students and practitioners in the process of designing, building and operating modern aircraft in the contemporary aviation system.

Integration is a predominant theme of this book, as aircraft systems are becoming more
integrated and complex, but so is the economic, political and technical environment in which they operate.

Key features:
• Content is based on many years of practical industrial experience by the authors on a range
of civil and military projects
• Generates an understanding of the integration and interconnectedness of systems in
modern complex aircraft
• Updated contents in the light of latest applications
• Substantial new material has been included in the areas of avionics technology, software
and system safety

The authors are all recognised experts in the field and between them have over 140 years’
experience in the aircraft industry. Their direct and accessible style ensures that Civil Avionics Systems, Second Edition is a must-have guide to integrated avionic systems in modern aircraft for those in the aerospace industry and academia.
