Dieses Buch behandelt die begrifflichen und sachlichen Grundlagen
der Flugnavigation sowie die mathematisch-geometrischen
Zusammenhange mit zahlreichen Berechnungsbeispielen. Wegen des
engen Bezugs zur Kartographie, welche die benoetigten raum- und
sachbezogenen Informationen fur die thematischen Karten und
Navigationsdatenbanken bereitstellt, sind die theoretischen Aspekte
sowie der praktische Gebrauch und die Interpretation moderner
Navigationskarten inhaltlicher Schwerpunkt. Weiterer Schwerpunkt
ist die leistungsbasierte Navigation, wie diese in der heutigen
Luftfahrtpraxis mithilfe integrierter bordseitiger
Navigationssysteme in Verbindung mit den Ab- und Anflugverfahren
realisiert wird. Hierbei werden Funk-, Tragheits- und
Satellitennavigation kombiniert. Mithin widmet sich dieses Buch den
Letzteren in einer angemessenen Detailtiefe sowie der Architektur
der Bordsysteme am Beispiel der weltweit verbreiteten Airbus
A320-Flugzeugfamilie. Des Weiteren werden relevante Aspekte der
Flugsicherung einbezogen. Zielgruppe sind alljene, die ihre
Ausbildung zum Piloten oder Fluglotsen mit einem Studium im Bereich
der Luftfahrt kombinieren, Verfahrensplanende bei der
Flugsicherung, Studierende des Verkehrsingenieurwesens oder der
Geowissenschaften und alle, die sich fur Navigationskarten und
-systeme sowie die damit verbundenen aktuellen Technologien
begeistern. Die vorliegende zweite Auflage ist gleichermassen
geeignet fur Neueinsteiger und Fortgeschrittene, die
Praxisbeispiele verhelfen zum "Ankommen". Zahlreiche hochwertige
Abbildungen foerdern die Anschaulichkeit, grosser Wert wird auf
Allgemeinverstandlichkeit gelegt bei dennoch mathematischer
Fundierung. Das Buchkonzept mit dem Schwerpunkt auf aktueller
Thematik bindet die traditionellen Navigationssysteme jedoch soweit
ein, dass die Leserinnen und Leser Kenntnisse erwerben, welche
ihnen dazu verhelfen, oben genannte Systeme als alleinige
Navigationsmittel anwenden zu koennen. Auch werden die vom
Luftfahrtbundesamt fur die Ausbildung zum Verkehrsflugzeugfuhrer im
Fach Navigation geforderten Inhalte im Wesentlichen abgedeckt.

Praise for THE MAVERICK AND HIS MACHINE "Like all great biographers, Kevin Maney gives us an engaging story and so much more. His fascinating and definitive book about IBM’s founder is replete with amazing revelations and character lessons that resonate today. Among the gems: how a demanding curmudgeon managed to shape a collaborative corporate culture–and create a legacy that changed the world." –Rosabeth Moss Kanter Harvard Business School, bestselling author of Evolve! and When Giants Learn to Dance "The gripping story of sky-high ambition, iron willpower, huge bet-the-company gambles, humiliating failure, and unparalleled success–one of the best books ever written about the technology industry, about one of the most fascinating people in twentieth-century America." –Marc Andreessen Cofounder of Opsware, Inc. and Netscape "The story of Watson and IBM is a compelling–and, at times, cautionary–tale of a determined, charismatic, flawed, and ultimately successful leader. Anyone interested in the story of business in America, the birth of high-tech, or simply the rags-to-riches tale of one determined businessman should read this book." –Robert M. Menschel Senior Director, Goldman Sachs author of Markets, Mobs, and Mayhem "In an action-packed story that reads like a novel, Kevin Maney paints a convincing portrait of a man who, having been a convicted criminal, redeemed himself and reshaped the American business landscape. The career of Thomas Watson, the effective founder of IBM, is not only fascinating, but offers many critical lessons on management and personal conduct that remain extremely poignant today." –Peter Krass author of Carnegie
