Avionics

Avionics Plays a Vital Role in Ensuring Optimal Flight Performance and Safety

The term aerospace is customarily associated with the branch of technology and industry that concerns flight within the Earth’s atmosphere (aviation or aeronautics) and in space (astronautics).  Correspondingly, the discipline of aerospace engineering focuses on the design, development, and testing of various aircraft, spacecraft, satellites, and missiles, as well as the supervision of their respective manufacture.

Independent of the type of craft or its intended purpose, there is great dependence on electronic systems to ensure optimal and precise functionality and, in cases of manned flight, the safety of operators and passengers.  These electronic systems are commonly known as avionics, a term derived from a blending of the words aviation and electronics.

Avionics play a critical role in numerous flight-related systems, with examples including:

The responsibilities for such systems customarily lie with avionics engineers/technicians, specifically in relation to elements of:

From a safety perspective, the roles of avionics engineer and avionics technician are vital to ensuring that aerospace flights (whether manned or unmanned) commence, proceed, and conclude without incident or undue consequence.  Additionally, from the standpoint of flight performance, the reliability of electronic systems cannot be overstated, ranging in significance from flight controls and navigational accuracy to the transmission and interpretation of data.

As a result, employers that are either directly or indirectly associated with the aerospace industry will require skilled staff in their avionics roles, particularly those individuals with a strong comprehension of both the theoretical and practical applications of electronic systems.
