The AMT series textbooks were created to set the pace for maintenance
technician training and attain a level of quality that surpasses all
other maintenance textbooks on the market. Powerplant covers the final
section of the FAA's required curriculum, detailing the technical
maintenance of turbine and reciprocating engines, theory and
construction of aircraft engines, aircraft powerplants, and powerplant
auxiliary systems.
This fourth edition has been updated to today's practices and procedures
by technical editor David Scroggins.
The curriculum meets 14 CFR Part 147 curriculum requirements, as well as
prepares applicants for all subjects in the FAA Knowledge Exams. The
textbooks are designed for at-home, classroom, or university-level
training. They include colored charts, tables and illustrations
throughout, in addition to an extensive glossary, index, and additional
career information. A study guide is included within each textbook in
the form of study question sections, with answer keys printed at the end
of each chapter.
