Wings, propulsion, flight controls, stealth, structures, and systems the full fixed-wing aircraft stack for working en
What you'll learn
⚡ • Explain how lift, drag, and thrust interact across the full flight envelope, from takeoff to cruise to landing.
⚡ • Predict boundary-layer behaviour, flow separation, and stall onset from an airfoil + angle-of-attack combination.
⚡ • Read a wing planform and infer its speed regime, manoeuvrability, sweep strategy, and high-lift system.
⚡ • Analyse transonic and supersonic phenomena — shock-wave formation, wave drag, and area ruling.
⚡ • Explain aeroelastic failure modes — flutter, divergence, and control reversal — at engineering level.
⚡ • Compare turbojet, turbofan, turboprop, turboshaft, and piston propulsion on thrust, SFC, weight, and mission fit.
⚡ • Walk through a fly-by-wire control architecture, including redundancy, control laws, and envelope protection.
⚡ • Identify the four classical dynamic stability modes — phugoid, short-period, Dutch roll, spiral — and why they matter.
⚡ • Trace primary load paths in a metallic or composite airframe and relate them to inspection intervals.
⚡ • Describe safe-life vs fail-safe vs damage-tolerant design philosophies and when each applies.
⚡ • Explain stealth shaping (faceting, planform alignment, S-ducts), RAM, and IR-signature management.
⚡ • Interpret an aircraft's hydraulic, pneumatic, fuel, electrical, and avionics architectures at block-diagram level.
⚡ • Map a scheduled-maintenance programme (A-/B-/C-/D-checks, NDI methods) onto real airframe hardware.
Requirements
❗ • High-school level physics forces, pressures, and basic Newtonian mechanics.
❗ • Comfort with block diagrams and simple engineering sketches.
❗ • No prior aerospace coursework required the first two lessons rebuild the necessary foundations.
❗ • No specific CAD or simulation software is required; concepts are shown through animated visuals.
Description
Fixed-wing aircraft are one of the most demanding engineered systems on the planet. A commercial jet integrates aerodynamics, propulsion, structures, flight controls, avionics, hydraulics, electrical power, environmental control, and airworthiness management into a package that must hold together through millions of pressurization cycles and tens of thousands of flight hours. This course walks through the complete fixed-wing stack the way a practicing aerospace engineer actually sees it and it goes deep.
Over 30 focused lessons and roughly you'll cover every subsystem, every flight regime, and every major design trade-off a working aerospace engineer has to hold in their head. Each lesson is short and visual. Instead of dense equations on a whiteboard, you'll watch boundary layers separate, shock waves form, wings flex under load, control surfaces deflect, turbofan stages spool up, landing gear extend, radar signatures shift, and maintenance tasks map onto real hardware animated on real geometry, with the key numbers and design trade-offs called out as they happen.
What makes this course different
• Comprehensive depth, not a survey 30 lessons across 5 modules cover everything from standard-atmosphere physics to hypersonic considerations, from piston aero-engines to thrust-vectoring afterburners, from A-checks to D-checks, and the full certification basis under Part 23/25 and CS-23/25.
• Systems-level, not slide-deck-level — every module connects the physics to the hardware and the hardware to the maintenance reality.
• Animation-first lift, drag, shock waves, engine cycles, dynamic stability modes, and fly-by-wire behavior are shown in motion, not described in a paragraph.
• Works for engineers moving sideways mechanical, controls, electrical, manufacturing, and quality engineers brought into aerospace programmed will find a shared baseline here.
• Stealth and survivability treated as a proper engineering subject — shaping, planform alignment, S-ducts, radar-absorbent materials, IR-signature management, and electronic warfare are full lessons, not sidebars.
• Maintenance and airworthiness included end-to-end A/B/C/D-check structure, non-destructive inspection methods, fatigue + damage-tolerance reasoning, and certification paths are part of the curriculum, because a design that can't be maintained or certified doesn't fly.
About the instructor
Omar Koryakin Principal Engineer. I've spent my career in precision engineering and aerospace-adjacent work, and I teach because the next generation of engineers deserves clear, visual explanations instead of decades-old textbook scans. My courses reach tens of thousands of engineers worldwide. If it can be drawn, it can be understood.
