The transition from piston engines to jet engines is often asignificant milestone in every pilot’s career.Turbines or jet engines offer different performancecharacteristics compared to piston engines. Not only do turbinesdeliver superior power, but they also enable flight at much higheraltitudes than piston engines.In this work, you will learn all the basic operating principlesof a turbine, along with the main components that make up thesetypes of engines, and a step-by-step guide on transitioning from oneengine type to another.
