Rolls Royce - The Jet Engine
Does anyone own a copy of this book?
Is it worth buying for my ATPL aircraft gen knowledge exam.
Many thanks.

Yes - I was fortunate to be given a copy in the late 70s.
It contains everything you are ever likely to want to know about jet engines, helped me through my CAA engines exam and I still refer to it occassionally. Clear text and great colour pictures.
I don't know its current price so whether it's worth buying for A/C Gen is a mute point. If your course material is 'light weight' then yes, but I should like to think only buy as a back-up.

RR are selling the book for £25 which is a bargain IMHO.

An excellent book. Very in-depth, but idiot proof!! Given to BA Engineers when they start their apprenticeships. As said before, great back up book and excellent to top up ATPL studies.
