Basic Gas Turbine Theory reading meterial
Hey guys this is my first post on here, I am currently studying my Diploma in Aviation in New Zealand and so far is going perfect. I have decided to take on some extra work and self study towards the Basic gas turbine exam done through ASL, I was wondering if anyone has any good advice on the proper reading material for the exam, all i seem to have found so far is related to the states. Thanks in advance for the advice

'Aircraft Gas Turbine Powerplants' by Jeppesen - one of the best covering the theory aspects and also one of the main reference books for the NZ BGT. 'The Jet Engine' by Rolls Royce is also a colourful book with lots of illustrations and explains some things from a different angle but is not as in-depth. Those two books and a copy of the list of topics covered in the exam would be an excellent place to start.

Does anyone still have access to the old Bob Guard BGT notes? It's been so long since I even thought about those I no longer have any idea if I've given them away or where to start looking for them if I haven't! They were really good -especially as Bob wrote the ASL BGT exam in those days! He was an interesting character too... either pilot or co- on the SafeAir flight that witnessed strange happenings along the Kaikoura coast many years ago.

Possibly a stupid question, but is conducting a BGT course compulsory before doing an endorsement on a turboprop aircraft? If so, who offers these courses?
