Subject aims expressed by acquired skills and competences
The subject´s goal is to achieve the necessary competencies to focus on the issues of fundamental principles of aircraft flying in the areas of heavy air subsonic and supersonic speeds. Knowledge of the Principles of Flight and the need of teaching of this course by acquiring of some aviation qualifications is an ICAO requirement.

Summary
The course is based on module 080, the basics of flight in Annex I to Commission Regulation (EU) 1178/2011, which lays down the technical requirements for crews in civil aviation under Regulation (EC) No 216/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council. The content is focused on the basic knowledge of high-speed aerodynamics of aircraft. The course builds on the Principles of Flight I
The student will gain knowledge in the field of aerodynamics, air flow around the profile at high speeds, resistance to supersonic flow, the principle and the formation of a multiple in the range that allows him to pass ATPL exams at the Civil Aviation Authority in Prague.
