Here is the second edition of the encyclopedia of essential terms for candidates for the Brevet d’Initiation à l’Aéronautique (BIA), their instructors, and all other aviation enthusiasts.
With over 600 entries and 250 proper nouns… Whether it’s technical terms, concepts, notable figures, or—of course—the aircraft that make up the world of aerospace, this is a thoroughly researched second edition of “The Illustrated BIA Primer.”
Through diagrams and photographs, it serves as a supplement to the courses taken during training, allowing those who dream of flying to study more independently and boost their chances of passing the exam. All questions asked in recent years are answered here, including those in the section titled “History and Culture of Aeronautics and Space,” which is part of the curriculum.
A valuable resource for candidates, this book is also intended for BIA instructors, anyone preparing for an aviation exam, and, more broadly, anyone wishing to acquire a solid foundation in aviation, combining scientific and technical knowledge with passion, rigor, and general knowledge—including its most specialized aspects. And to fly, it’s best to be well-prepared and take this primer… literally!
