For professional pilots
This computer based training course in Gas Turbines teaches the subject of gas turbine engines up to and beyond the standard required by the EASA/JAA Air Transport Pilot's Licence (ATPL) syllabus. Gas Turbines together with its companion CD-ROM, Aircraft Piston Engines covers the complete EASA/JAA ATPL Powerplant syllabus. The two CD-ROMs together contain over 500 ATPL-style questions and answers on the subject Powerplant. This Gas Turbines course also covers all EASA/JAA objectives for the ATPL helicopter gas turbine syllabus, except for those pertaining specifically to helicopter engine intakes.

Product Review

OATmedia - Gas Turbine Engines
"(...) This is not only a thorough exam preparation tool, but also an invaluable resource for anybody required to operate gas-turbine powerplants on almost any description. So if you're a prospective ATPL, an engineering student, if you're just interested in technical matters like this, or perhaps if you've just put a deposit on a TBM700 or a Eurocopter EC135, you would do well to invest another £60 in this CD-ROM."
