Initial Airworthiness includes:
· how structural, handling, and systems evaluations are carried out;
· the processes by which safety and fitness for purpose are determined; and
· the use of both US and European unit systems
Covering both civil and military practice and the current regulations and standards across Europe and North America, Initial Airworthiness will give the reader an understanding of how all the major aspects of an aircraft are certified, as well as providing a valuable source of reference for existing practitioners.
Dr. Guy Gratton has worked for 25 years in evaluating the safety of aircraft, with his work spanning every class of manned aeroplane from large airliners, via jet fighters to gliders and single seat microlights; this has included the complete clearance of several new aircraft designs, as well as testing every major component of an aircraft. He has taught, and continues to teach, this subject at several UK universities as well as managing several aeronautical research facilities.

"The concise presentation of the sources and classes of internationally acceptable design requirements is a particularly useful service ... . all the topics are treated in a readable style, with illustrative examples and diagrams, complete with softer advice and diverting historic detail. ... whatever the airframe design issue may be, it is a very good place to start." (Howard Torode, Aerospace, December, 2016)
