About

This chapter contains basic aircraft information for aircraft structural repairers. A general knowledge of aircraft design, aerodynamic forces, aircraft struc- tural units and structural members, and their relationships to each other is essential to under- standing basic aircraft structural repair. Section I. Aerodynamic Forces Airframe repairers repair, fabricate, and modify aircraft structures. They need to know the names, locations, and purposes of all structural members and parts as well as methods and techniques for repairing them. Repairers should also know basic flight theory and aerodynamic principles and how a repair might affect them. The exterior surfaces of an aircraft, all of which are critical aerodynamically, must be repaired so that air will move over them as smoothly as possible.
