This chapter provides an overview of a specific system to allow the reader to better understand and assimilate the content by placing system issues within an overall context. The aircraft systems comprising propulsion system, flight control, fuel, hydraulic and environmental control systems provide the means of flying the aircraft. The mission requirements will dictate the overall aircraft design, determining structural weight and size as well as the aerodynamic characteristics. Safety has to be a paramount consideration in any form of transportation and this true than in air travel. Several factors influence safety: system function, performance, integrity, reliability, and dispatch availability. The operation of aircraft by an airline or charter operator must be carried out economically or else the company will fail financially and be unable to continue to provide a service. Design process helps to define the system architecture, the number of control and power channels, and level of redundancy.
