Preface
Nowadays, China has entered a narrow group of countries that are able to design and manufacture their own aircraft. Airworthiness Certification and Testing is one of the key tasks of aircraft readiness for flights. This book displays principles
of Aircraft Airworthiness Technology Management offering readers the five principal chapters:
Chapter 1 Aviation Safety;
Chapter 2 Certification Organizations;
Chapter 3 Aviation Regulations;
Chapter 4 Type Certification;
Chapter 5 Airworthiness Certification.
This book is intended to give an understanding of procedures which are usually
passed for demonstrating the compliance with aviation regulations during airworthiness certification. The emphasis is put on type and airworthiness certification procedures. The aim of this part is to give an introduction of different certificates, procedures, and documents used in airworthiness certification, and to introduce relevant airworthiness regulations.
This book is based on the lecture notescompiledin2013 2019 for the courses of Certification Tests of Aircraft Airworthiness Certification and Application Procedure Certification of Helicopters Airworthiness English that have ever been delivered by the author at the National Aerospace University of Ukraine Kharkov Aviation InstituteKharkou, Ukraine; Nanjing University of Aeronautics and AstronauticsNanjing, China; Hong Kong University of Science and TechnologyHong Kong, China; Sichuan UniversityChengdu, China; Motor Sich Aeroengine Design & Manufacturing CompanyZaporizhya, Ukraine; COMAC Aircraft CompanyShanghai, China. The content of this book is composed of necessary regulations, requirements, procedures, and their explanations offering readers all relevant information on the topic at one place.
These lecture notes will be useful for students of aviation-related universities studying in aeronautical engineering, majoring in aircraft design, aircraft strength analysis, airworthiness management, air traffic control, aviation law, etc.
The principal learning outcomes are:
1 understanding of relevant regulations for preparation of aircraft certification process and testing during requirement compliance demonstration;
2 gaining knowledge of main certification documentation used during relevant phases of certification;
3 gaining knowledge of main certification test methods and their phases.
The author would like to acknowledge the help of the Department of Civil Aviation Engineering, College of Civil Aviation, Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics China and Professor Chen Guo personally for their outstanding support and funding provided for the publication of this book; Professor Li Longbiao for his continuous interaction with the publisher; the two students and friends of mine Mr. Stephane M. Tambwe and Mr. Yu Bowen for their help in the lecture content editing; my wife Alona Chernykh and my son Matvii Mawei Chernykh who have always been respectful to my work concentration on these lecture course preparations since the very beginning in 2013 ; my parents Alex and Jane Chernykh for they introduced me into the Aviation Science in 2002.
