Module 8 Basic Aerodynamics: B1 / B2 Manual

Module 8 · B1 / B2 · 5 syllabus subjects

Executive overview

Module 8, Basic aerodynamics, asks candidates to master the atmosphere, airflow around a wing, lift and drag, stability and the effect of flight conditions on performance. This single edition serves both the B1 and the B2 route, because the syllabus asks for the same knowledge in this module, so every chapter of this study manual is selected for B1 / B2 candidates and nothing is padded with content outside your category.

The edition maps to 5 syllabus subjects of Regulation (EU) 2023/989, Part-66 Appendix I: 5 at Level 2. That split tells you where to spend your hours, since Level 3 subjects are examined in the greatest depth.

Study it alongside the Quiz Engine: each syllabus reference in this manual is a Quiz Competency, so you can practise one subject at a time, then run a timed simulation of the Module 8 examination. Your Online Senior Instructor uses the same references to send you back to the right chapter.

How it helps you pass the exam

  • After the manual you can explain how lift and drag change with angle of attack and speed, describe stability and control about each axis and relate atmospheric conditions to aircraft performance.
  • It confronts the classic stumbling block head on: the link between angle of attack, stall and lift coefficient.
  • Expect short conceptual questions that test one clear idea at a time; the chapter order follows the syllabus so you can tick subjects off as you go.

Competencies targeted (EASA Part-66 syllabus)

Frequently asked questions

Which licence categories does the Module 8 B1 / B2 edition cover?

It follows the Part-66 syllabus columns for B1.1, B1.2, B1.3, B1.4, B2. Subjects that your category does not examine are left out, so you study only what applies to you.

Does this manual replace approved Part-66 training?

No. It is a study and revision resource that mirrors the syllabus. Examinations are sat with your competent authority or an approved Part-147 organisation.

How do I measure progress in Module 8?

Open the Quiz Engine for Module 8: every syllabus reference above has its own competency quiz and the module has a timed exam simulation. Weak results are picked up by your Online Senior Instructor.
