O autorze

Allan Seabridgeis a member of the BAE Systems Heritage Department at Warton and retired as Head of Flight Systems Engineering after a long career with BAE Systems. He has over 50 years' experience in aerospace systems engineering, business development, and research & development, working on major projects including Canberra, Jaguar, Tornado, EAP, Typhoon, and Nimrod. Since retiring he has developed an interest in engineering education leading to the design and delivery of systems and engineering courses at a number of UK universities at the undergraduate and postgraduate level.Mohammad Radaei has a PhD from Cranfield University in aerospace engineering, specializing in avionics systems integration. He obtained a BSc in aeronautical engineering from Air University, and MSc in aerospace engineering from National University of Iran in Tehran. He also holds a commercial pilot's license. His research interests include aircraft systems design, avionics systems integration, systems architecting, aircraft and systems flight testing, applied mathematics, flight dynamics and control of manned and unmanned aircraft, as well as human machine interactions. He is currently lecturing in avionics systems at a number of universities.
