Jet engine turbines

The transition from piston engines to jet engines is often a
significant milestone in every pilot's career.
Turbines or jet engines offer different performance
characteristics compared to piston engines. Not only do turbines
deliver superior power, but they also enable flight at much higher
altitudes than piston engines.
In this work, you will learn all the basic operating principles
of a turbine, along with the main components that make up these
types of engines, and a step-by-step guide on transitioning from one
engine type to another.
