Landing gear
|
Landing gear systems engineers design the systems that allow an aircraft to operate safely during take-off, landing, and at all other times while it is on the runway.
|
|
Avionics
|
Avionics engineers produce the computers and the computer software that control the operation of many things on board the aircraft.
|
|
Cabin Environment Systems
|
It is the responsibility of the cabin system
engineers to design and develop air conditioning units and pressurisation systems that will keep passengers safe and comfortable during flight.
|
|
Structure
|
Structural engineers design the major parts of the
aircraft that must carry all the forces that will be exerted on it.
|
|
Power Systems
|
Power plant engineers are responsible for the
design and development of engines that are used to power the aircraft.
|
|
Aerodynamics
|
Aerodynamics engineers will work to produce a wing that will enable the aircraft to fly, while trying to keep the drag forces on the aircraft as low as possible.
|
|
Fuel Systems
|
Fuel systems engineers must design a system that supplies a steady and constant flow of fuel to the engines, while allowing the fuel to be moved around in flight, to help balance the aircraft.
