Aircraft System Safety
Assessments for Initial Airworthiness Certification
Description
Key Features
- Covers the effect of design, manufacturing, and maintenance errors and the effects of common component errors
- Evaluates the malfunctioning of multiple aircraft components and the interaction which various aircraft systems have on the ability of the aircraft to continue safe flight and landing
- Presents and defines a case study (an aircraft modification program) and a safety strategy in the second chapter, after which each of the following chapters will explore the theory of the technique required and then apply the theory to the case study
Readership
Engineers in the aviation industry, including manufacturers, suppliers, and operators, safety engineers, and civil aviation authorities concerned with design/reliability/safety of aircraft.

Aircraft System Safety
Great book for civil aircraft safety engineers! Gives a good overview of regulations and a lot of useful examples. I will use it as reference when working with aircraft system safety. What I can see, it covers all my need for conducting civil safety assessments.
