Aeronautical Engineering - Flight Engineering

Who among us does not know that Abbas ibn Firnas was the first to attempt flight in history? That he was the pioneer of aviation who was the first person to apply the principle of flight; he invented two wings and was able to fly with them like a bird. 

From this starting point, humans also began to shine in the field of aviation and space. Accordingly, the genius scholar Abbas ibn Firnas can be considered one of the founders of many of the scientific aspects and foundations related to aviation, such as astronomy, space engineering, and aeronautical engineering as well.

The aim behind studying the specialisation of "Aeronautical Engineering", known as "Flight Engineering", is to prepare graduates and aviation engineers capable of carrying out all the tasks that fall under aeronautical engineering work.

The Aeronautical Engineering specialisation covers several matters such as aircraft design, aircraft control, control of sensors and control systems in aircraft, in addition to the design of propulsion systems and micro-electromechanical systems.

Through today's article we will get all the information we need about aeronautical engineering, which emerged between the late nineteenth century and the early twentieth century and was nothing more than engineering built on the experiments and ideas of other engineering disciplines; then we will decide whether we want to study aeronautical engineering or another specialisation!
