Aircraft systems and avionics are critical components of modern aviation, ensuring safety, efficiency, and operational effectiveness. Here's an overview of both:
1. Aircraft Systems
These are the various mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic systems that enable an aircraft to function. Major systems include:
- Powerplant (Engines & Propulsion Systems) – Provides thrust for the aircraft.
- Electrical System – Powers avionics, lighting, and other onboard electronics.
- Hydraulic System – Controls landing gear, brakes, and flight control surfaces.
- Pneumatic System – Supports pressurization, de-icing, and engine start functions.
- Fuel System – Manages fuel storage, distribution, and consumption.
- Environmental Control System (ECS) – Maintains cabin pressure, temperature, and air quality.
- Landing Gear System – Supports takeoff, landing, and taxiing operations.
2. Avionics (Aviation Electronics)
Avionics refers to the electronic systems used in aircraft, satellites, and spacecraft. These include:
- Navigation Systems – GPS, VOR (VHF Omnidirectional Range), ILS (Instrument Landing System), and FMS (Flight Management System).
- Communication Systems – Radios (VHF/UHF/HF), satellite communication, and transponders.
- Flight Control Systems – Fly-by-wire, autopilot, and flight directors.
- Monitoring & Display Systems – EFIS (Electronic Flight Instrument System), HUD (Head-Up Display), and EICAS (Engine Indicating and Crew Alerting System).
- Weather Radar & Sensors – Detects turbulence, storms, and icing conditions.
- Surveillance & Safety Systems – TCAS (Traffic Collision Avoidance System), ADS-B (Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast), and GPWS (Ground Proximity Warning System).
