About this module

EASA Part 66 Module 16 covers piston aero-engines for the B1.2 and B1.4 licences: the four-stroke cycle and engine performance, construction, carburettors and fuel injection, magneto ignition, cooling and exhaust, supercharging, lubrication, indications, installation and preservation.

Questions centre on classic piston theory — valve timing, mixture and detonation, magneto checks, oil-system behaviour — the kind of material that rewards steady, repeated practice with clear explanations.
