Fundamentals of Sustainable Aviation
About this book
Fundamentals of Sustainable Aviation is the first textbook to survey the critical field of sustainability within the aviation industry. Taking a systems thinking approach, it presents the foundational principles of sustainability and methodically applies them to different aviation sectors.
Opening with the basics of sustainability, emphasising the Sustainable Development Goals, the book then considers the environmental, economic and social dimensions of aviation. The following chapters apply these insights to aviation design, supply chains, operations, maintenance and facilities. The final chapter examines the concept of resilience in sustainable aviation. Overall, the textbook shows how future sustainability can be achieved by making better decisions today.
Students are supported with international case studies throughout the book. Slides, test questions and a teaching manual are available for instructors. This textbook is the ideal resource for courses on sustainable aviation globally and will also be of great interest to professionals in the field.
