This is the best course i have to understand the principle of Aircraft or flight mechanics

How do planes take off? How do they fly? How do pilots maintain control of them? And how high can airplanes fly? Get answers to all these questions and more with this specialization exploring the fundamentals of flight mechanics. You will learn how the laws of physics apply to airplanes and discover important concepts in aviation including lift, drag, and propulsion.

best analysis on standard atmospher and fluid charactristics of aircraft, i am really happy and thankful to coursera for providing such core course and faculty from isae-supareo. really thankful.
MF
Very enjoyable, 100% reccomend. It gave me an opportunity to see what i cold be studyinf n higher education, and further cemented the idea that aerospace is what i would like to persue.
TG
Very good course, the final assessment is quite challenging so you need to learn seriously.
SK
This course is very help full for my career to build knowledge about Flight Mechanics. The teaching is very realestic.
LS
Nice introduction to the fundamentals of airspeed and altimetry - interesting videos depicting the inner mechanics of the instruments and the interactive performance charts.
GS
Really great explanation and videos, a few more animations would have made topics more clearer
SV
I REALLY LOVE THIS COURSE! THANKS TO PROFESSOR ERIC FOR HIS EXCELLENT TEACHING AND GREAT LECTURES.
GS
Excellent explanation, tutorials and materialsThe quizes are not straight forward, they make you think deeplyStrong focus on fundamentals
LS
Nice introduction to the topic but was hoping for more details about 'flutter' for flight control surfaces and how it is managed.
VV
The examples and illustrations are helpful. The instructor seems to take interest in teaching. I didn't pass with flying colors, but the I learned a lot.
RB
Really helpful, especially if your course is aligned with the aviation industry

This is a painfull not to provide a certificate for this MOOC. The topic are interesting and we may produce effort & time to succed finally without a gratification. For a school like Supaero with this only MOOC , finally it is better for such a subject to go to an other Academic Provider
It need deep learning and attention to write the correct formulas, but it's a big worthless effort without a certificate.
The effort put into the course preparation is too good. Some of the quizzes seemed to be a few levels higher than the course but that's the beauty of it. It makes us think. Great job!
This course is very useful to learn Flight mechanics, the basics physics, but with the methods of test I get trouble. I got the right answers but the system is very delicate with the commas or the underlines, and give a lot of trouble to approve the test because of that. Also it will be great to have a certificate, but it gives not.
The content is helpful and inspiring for those who are interested in Flight Mechanics. However, there are some typo in the quiz (and sometimes they affect the meaning of the problems, for example, the incorrect parameter the speed at the top of the loop "n_C" in the final exam, which should have been "V_C" according to the problem setting). I can see the instructor is trying to use different ways for students to interact with the problems, but it seems that some questions like "choose all the words describing the attitude of the airplane" in the assessment for week 2 is too ambiguous and could not be answered correctly. For the last exam, I have to go back to check the discussion forum to see how others program the answer so that the answer can be accepted by the system before I can pass the exam, even though my derivation for the answer is correct (for example, in the problem, some of the parameters have suffix, so I type, for example, "V_A", and the preview shows the correct suffix, but the form accepted is "VA", which is not suffixed). Generally speaking, if you are not that care about the score and want a definite 100% score, you will have a great time learning this course.
some concepts were not explained thoroughly enough to fully understand
An amazing course for students pursuing Aerospace/Aeronautical/Mechanical Engineering
The way problems are approached, the teaching methods, the formal humor, the absolutely amazing practial application probelms and assignments is an icing on the cake!
Highly recommend every dreamer out there to take a look at the course
Terrific course. Easy to understand lectures but beyond simplistic explanations, real world examples, actually doing the calculations to reinforce the learning without being overly technical.
The videos were extremely concise, and I felt I really learned a lot from this course. Although I'm 13 years old, I managed to push through with my love for planes.
This course and specialization is exactly what is needed for those who want to know, in a simple way and starting from a few knowledge, the world of aeronautics.
THANKS SIR ERIC FOR TEACHING ME AND OTHERS ABOUT THE BASICS PARTS AND BASIC PRINCIPLES OF FLIGHT AND ITS MECHANICS. A WARM THANKS .
Superb course to get along with the basics of flight mechanics. Strongly recommended!
excelent teacher thank you
this is helpful
Interesting course but the formulas to type are were quite hard.
Learned alot.
This course was a truly enriching and valuable experience for me as an aerospace engineering student. It helped me deepen my understanding of flight dynamics, energy, and load factors. The content was well-structured and the explanations were clear. The exercises were particularly helpful in reinforcing the concepts through practical application. I especially appreciated how the course connected theoretical knowledge with real-world aviation scenarios. I highly recommend this course to anyone interested in aerospace engineering or looking to strengthen their foundational understanding of flight mechanics
well that goos experience taken this course refresh my memory from school time profesor Poquillon
was excellent wath he give us in that course some people has to study a couple a years en especial all calculation i have Doug and ask a two former pilot and the can not help wo fin al with that and they give me complements to me al the course and profesor they coment was thatb was acomplete course to any one thatb want to be a pilot or aircraft mechanic.
the final tast the shoul be in multiple choice that was some kind the hard but we DIT IT.
THANK YOU.
This was a very interesting course to learn the basis of aerodynamics. I've learned so much and the material was great. I'd like to thank the professor for using so many resources of learning on this, it really helped me get the visual understanding, specially on the more physics and mathematics part.
A little bit tough in the end but good introduction to flight mecanics.
I wish there was a course for dumies like me in this subject, but that's okay, the grade to pass are very reasonable.
Thank you, wish to hear from you more!
