Transport aircraft systems have undergone many changes in the rapidly advancing electronic age, and this latest edition of Transport Category Aircraft Systems can help you make sense of them. Professor Wild has updated the book to include the latest aircraft and removed the aircraft that are no longer commonly seen. The book is now in its fourth edition and is widely used in AMT schools and other settings where an understanding of large aircraft systems is needed.
Designed for readers who already have some knowledge of aeronautical terminology and basic aircraft systems, this book provides in-depth explanations and detailed illustrations of transport-category aircraft and their onboard systems. It introduces complex systems by explaining the basics that are common to all large aircraft. By understanding how a system works on a specific aircraft, the reader can transfer that knowledge to other aircraft.
During the AMS 263 course, students study the theory of operation, inspection and troubleshooting of systems found on general aviation and turboprop aircraft. The lab contains a wide variety of equipment used in systems such as hydraulics, air conditioning, oxygen, landing gear, tires and brakes, and ice and rain detection/protection.
The theory of operation, maintenance and troubleshooting of systems on large jet aircraft is the subject of the AMS 365 course. The lab is equipped with items from large hydraulic and pneumatic systems, environmental control systems, large landing gear systems, fire detection and suppression, and flight control systems.

The system, featuring a 3D rendering of the flight deck of a Boeing 737 NG, will allow students to utilize VR flight deck familiarization modules with the guidance of checklist and procedures training to augment traditional learning materials such as PowerPoint slides, diagrams, and videos. It will be rolled out later this spring.
Throughout the semester, students will be asked to provide feedback on the usability of the headset as well as offer their opinion of how or if the VR technology strengthens their knowledge of advanced aircraft systems. This information will be shared with both VTR and other faculty at the College of Aeronautics so that additional instructional technology can be incorporated into traditional classes, Pittorie said.
The content of this chapter is based on the United States Code of Federal Regulations, Title 14, Chapter I, Part 25 entitled, Airworthiness Standards, Transport Category Airplanes. These United States airworthiness standards have been used and adopted as the model for the Canadian standards supplemented by additional airworthiness requirements based on Canadian experience and required for Canadian aviation purposes.
The FAR numbering system is used. The Canadian standards bears the same number as the FAR equivalent, prefixed by the number "5", as this chapter contains the standards for Part V of the Canadian Aviation Regulations (CARs).
The standards in this chapter are presented in a two column format with the United States FAR in the left column and the Canadian standards in the right column. Chapters, sub-chapters, sections and subsections numbering and headings are opposite to the equivalent FAR. Where the Canadian standard is identical to the FAR, the words "No Variation" appear; where a variation exists, the affected part of text is printed opposite to the FAR with all changes underlined.
The first issue of this chapter is based on FAR Part 25, up to and including amendment 25-59. In addition to administrative changes (e.g., Administrator = Minister; Part = Chapter) and the deletion of references to operating FARs, the Canadian variations included in this edition are as follows:
Note: In 525-1 changes were identified by marginal black lines. In future, changes will be identified by brackets [ ]; editorial alterations and typographical corrections will not be identified.
Amendment 25-62 "Standards for Approval of an Automatic Take-off Thrust Control System (ATTCS)", which provides newly developed standards (previously special conditions) for the installation of an ATTCS. The amendment specifies maximum thrust limits, prescribes system reliability and system status monitoring and promulgates details of manual selection of maximum approved take-off thrust. The amendment is based on special conditions developed for the Boeing 727 and Douglas DC-9 ATTCS designs.
Amendment 25-63 "Standards Governing the Noise Certification of Aircraft", which revises certain noise certification requirements which makes the associated regulations more manageable. Hence the noise test procedures are simplified, the equipment specifications are updated to better accommodate the use of current digital technology and the number of flight tests required to approve relatively minor aircraft modifications is reduced.
Amendment 25-64 "Improved Seat Safety Standards", which upgrades the standards for occupant protection during emergency landing conditions (i.e. static load factors in the upward, downward and sideward direction with an aft direction requirement added). Seat restraint requirements were revised and impact injury criteria were defined based on research testing and service experience.
Amendment 25-65 "Cockpit Voice Recorders and Flight Data Recorders", which amends flight data recorder and cockpit voice recorder regulations to provide more information to accident investigators. Generally, the requirements and parameters for flight recorders are upgraded to the level of the most sophisticated systems available; the use of digital recording equipment will henceforth become the norm. Additionally, uninterrupted sound recording will be required in cockpit voice recorders.
Amendment 25-66 "Improved Flammability Standards for Materials Used in the Interiors of Transport Category Airplane Cabins", which upgrades the fire safety standards for cabin interior materials by establishing refined fire test procedures (and apparatus) and a new requirement for smoke emission testing. The research conducted also determined that the reproducibility of test results would improve. Smoke emission testing is to reduce the possibility that emergency egress will be hampered by smoke obscuration.
The reissue of advisory material on the operation of thrust reversing systems following landing touch-down and selection of reverse thrust for turbine engine propeller aeroplanes. The new AMA 525/3 supersedes the original advisory (AMA 525.933) which addressed only turbojet thrust reversing systems.
Amendment 25-67 "Location of Passenger Emergency Exits in Transport Category Airplanes" which establishes a new standards that limits the distance between emergency exits on transport category aeroplanes to improve safe passenger evacuation during emergency.
Amendment 25-68. This amendment changes a cross reference to Part 91 in Appendix A of Part 25 and as such it is not applicable in Canada. This FAR change is part of a larger reorganisation of the general U.S. operating and flight rules to make them more understandable and easier to use.
Amendment 25-70 "Independent Power Source for Public Address System in Transport Category Airplanes" which intends to ensure the availability of the public address (PA) system during emergency conditions by requiring an independent PA system power source. This amendment applies only to aeroplanes that are required by operating rules to have a PA system.
Amendment 25-71 "Improved Structural Requirements for Pressurized Cabins and Compartments in Transport Category Airplanes" which upgrades the airworthiness standards for pressurised compartments. It requires evaluation of openings in any pressurised compartment and examination of the effects of differential pressure loads on any critical structure inside or outside the pressurised compartment.
Amendment 25-72 "Special Review: Transport Category Airplane Airworthiness Standards" is a comprehensive update of the standards for clarity and accuracy, and ensures that the standards are appropriate and practicable for smaller transport category aeroplanes.
Amendment 25-73 "Fuel Venting and Exhaust Emission Requirements for Turbine Engine Powered Airplanes" which requires compliance with the new Part 34. Part 34 consolidates all of the applicable aircraft engine fuel venting and exhaust emission requirements of SFAR 27-5, and the test procedures specified under the U.S. regulations implementing the Clear Air Act of the United States of America. In lieu of Part 34, Transport Canada has adopted the standards of Annex 16 to the Convention on International Civil Aviation, Volume II entitled "Aircraft Engine Emission," First Edition 1981, published by ICAO. Accordingly, sections 525.903 and 525.951 are amended to refer to Chapter 516, Second Edition, Subchapter B.
Amendment 25-74 "Airplane Cabin Fire Protection" which provides improved cabin fire protection for transport category aeroplanes by requiring smoke detector systems and automatic fire extinguishers in each lavatory of certain aircraft; an increased number of hand fire extinguishers in the passenger compartment and galleys; and a specified number of extinguishers containing Halon 1211.
