The Illustrated BIA Alphabet Jean-Christophe Kraemer Régis Le Maitre Cepadues

This Alphabet, with approximately 500 entries, explores technical terms, concepts, characters and aircraft in the aerospace world, in connection with the BIA program (Brevet d'initiation à l'aéronautique). Richly illustrated with original diagrams or photographs, it offers a useful complement to the traditional course by allowing students to work independently and increase their chances of passing the exam. Candidates will find an entry corresponding to all the questions asked in recent years. More than 200 proper names will help them approach the "history and culture of aeronautics and space" part of the programme. The book is also intended for BIA instructors, whether they have or are preparing the CAEA, for people preparing a diploma, examination or aeronautical competition, and more generally for anyone wishing to enter the world of aeronautics and space, to discover its richness, passion, rigour and to acquire a solid scientific and technical culture.
