Preface

Design, production and maintenance of aeronautical products are characterised by above-average process complexity. Extensive requirements of European and American aviation legislation as well as numerous industry standards must be fulfilled. These aspects need to be taken into account in the organisational structures and implementation in everyday operations. This can only be achieved in the context of a structured and comprehensible QM system and a process organisation, where responsibilities are clearly allocated. This book therefore focuses on the requirements, functioning principles and organisational structures aeronautical organisations are challenged with. I wrote the first (German) edition of this textbook in 2009/2010, since a comprehensive overview of design, production and maintenance of aeronautical products had not been available in summarised form. After the book’s great success on the German-language market, I decided to publish an international edition. My goal is to provide a basic textbook that facilitates adequate understanding of organisational and legal interrelations across the aeronautical sector in Europe. Accordingly I have written this book to be both
