Aeronatical Engineering
Aeronautical / Aerospace Engineering is one of the most challenging fields
of engineering with a wide scope for growth. This field deals with the
development of new technology in the field of aviation, space exploration
and defence systems. It specialises
If you have ever harbored dreams of conquering the space in a flying
machine or becoming a top-notch pilot, aeronautical engineering may be
just your cup of tea. With technological advancement, development in space
science studies and man’s unending desir
Job description
An aeronautical engineer applies scientific and technological principles
to research, design, maintain, test and develop the performance of civil
and military aircraft, missiles, weapons systems, satellites and space
vehicles. The role is focused on enhan
Typical work activities
Typical work activities vary according to the role and employer, with most
aeronautical engineers specialising in a specific area. Within each
specialism, tasks typically involve:
undertaking blue sky research or applied research: blue sky research
involves developing and using fundamental physical processes and physics
laws in a controlled environment; applied research concerns the
application of blue sky research and is undertake
investigating the use of new materials, or improving existing materials
used;
applying the principles of science and technology to the creative design
of aircraft components and sup****t equipment and researching and
developing design specifications;
undertaking systematic manufacturing, involving the assembly and
modification of components;
supervising the assembly of airframes and the installation of engines,
instruments and other equipment;
participating in flight test programmes to measure take-off distances,
rate of climb, stall speeds, manoeuvrability and landing capacities;
resolving issues that arise during the design, development and testing
processes;
maintaining aircraft for full operation, involving regular inspections,
maintenance and servicing;
measuring and improving the performance of aircraft, components and
systems and modifying designs to improve safety features or minimise fuel
consumption and pollution;
developing repair procedures, working out and managing schedules for
repair and maintenance;
investigating aircraft accidents;
collating information, interpreting data and publi****ng the results of
specific projects in technical re****t form;
storing paperwork for approved data (drawings, technical instructions,
*****sments and calculations);
working with teams, suppliers, clients and managers to agree budgets,
timescales and specifications;
project managing, including scheduling resources and staff and managing
budgets;
communicating technical and regulatory advice to clients, teams, suppliers
and other professionals within the aerospace industry and presenting data
to groups and individuals
The specialisations includes in areas like structural design, navigational
guidance and control systems, instrumentation and communication or
production methods or it can be in a particular product such as military
aircrafts, passenger planes, helicopters
