4.1.2 Coursework Content

The author recommends that readers browse through this chapter even though there is no coursework involved yet. This information is essential for designers, and this chapter will be better understood after reading Chapter 11 on aircraft sizing and engine matching to finalize the design. Readers will use the information provided in this chapter in Chapter 6.

4.2 Introduction

Previous designs have a strong influence on future designs – real-life experience has no substitute and is dependable. It is therefore important that past information be properly synthesized by studying statistical trends and examining all aspects of any influencing parameters in shaping a new aircraft – this is one of the goals of this book. Many types of aircraft are in production serving different sector requirements – the civil and military missions differ substantially. It is important to classify aircraft categories in order to identify strong trends existing within each class.

Existing patterns of correlation (through regression analysis) within a class of aircraft indicate what may be expected from a new design. There are no surprise elements until new research establishes a radical change in technology or designers
