UK Accredited Online Engineering College
Flexible online engineering courses and qualifications
Diploma in Principles of Flight
The Diploma in Principles of Flight offered by iLearn Engineering® is a highly specialised online program that provides in-depth knowledge of flight mechanics, aerodynamics, aircraft design, and performance.
The iLearn Engineering® Diploma in Principles of Flight is a 40 credit course leading to the qualification of:
Diploma in Principles of Flight (EduQual Level 4)
The course is delivered as an online engineering course, consisting of two 20 credit units. The first unit is a recommended unit which is designed to deliver some fundamental learning required to progress onto the second, specific core unit.
Unit 1: Engineering Maths (recommended*) this unit covers the fundamentals of mathematics required for successful completion of the specialised unit. You will be brought up to speed with algebras, trigonometry, statistics and basic calculus. If you already hold a mathematics qualification you may be eligible to choose an alternate unit.
Unit 2: Flight Mechanics (core) in this specialised aerospace engineering unit you will begin by examining the function of aircraft components together with an appreciation of the atmosphere as the medium in which aircraft operate within. You will then examine and evaluate aircraft performance for straight and level flight, landing, take-off an other manoeuvres. Finally, you will begin to understand the principles of aircraft stability and control.
* The recommended unit can be replaced by a different unit of your choice depending on your personal preference, or previous learning experience.

“I successfully graduated my Higher International Certificate in Electrical and Electronic Engineering. The studies was good, tutor provide much support. I recommend iLearn Engineering for distance learning Engineering studies.”
Fuad, Higher International Certificate in Electrical and Electronic Engineering“So far, in two weeks study I have understood more content with these guys than in one year at part time university. Really good content especially in maths and makes learning a nice smooth progressive path rather than being rushed and pressured. Top notch service 👍”
Simon, Higher International Certificate in Mechanical Engineering“This program is providing me with the opportunity to finally finish my engineering degree at the most reasonable cost I’ve seen in the market to date…I highly recommend iLearn Engineering for anyone who wants to get into the field or pickup where they left off.”
