Title: Flight Engineers Manual with Representative Multiple-Choice Questions and Answers for the Flight Engineer Examination
Description: North Hollywood, CA: Pan-American Navigation Service, 1947. 1st Edition; 1st Printing. Softcover. Trade PB. This is an oversized trade paperback book. The book is in Good only condition and was issued without a dust jacket. The spine ends (both top and bottom) have tearing ont both front and rear joints. The front cover at bottom edge has a noticeable patch of burning - about an inch square. The covers have a couple of other creases, tears and smallish chips missing. The text pages are generally clean, though the first several pages have similar patches of burn spots. The front endpaper has a chip missing where the burn spot is, and also a previous owner's inked name. "A flight engineer (FE) , also sometimes called an air engineer, is the member of an aircraft's flight crew who monitors and operates its complex aircraft systems. In the early era of aviation, the position was sometimes referred to as the "air mechanic". Flight engineers can still be found on some larger fixed-wing airplanes and helicopters. A similar crew position exists on some spacecraft. In most modern aircraft, their complex systems are both monitored and adjusted by electronic microprocessors and computers, resulting in the elimination of the flight engineer's position. In earlier days, most larger aircraft were designed and built with a flight engineer's position. For U. S. Civilian aircraft that require a flight engineer as part of the crew, the FE must possess an FAA Flight Engineer Certificate with reciprocating, turboprop, or turbojet ratings appropriate to the aircraft.
