About the EASA Module 8 Exam

EASA Part-66 Module 08 Basic Aerodynamics is a foundation-knowledge module for the European aircraft maintenance licence (Categories A, B1, B2 and B3). It covers the physics of the atmosphere, aerodynamics, theory of flight, high-speed airflow, and flight stability and dynamics. The examination is a closed-book multiple-choice paper sat at a National Aviation Authority or an approved Part-147 maintenance training organisation. Under Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2023/989, applicable from 12 June 2024, Module 8 comprises 24 multiple-choice questions in 30 minutes for all licence categories.

There are 4 games built on 20 EASA Module 8 terms. In Guess the Term, a clue describes one term and you have six tries to spell it, with green, yellow and gray letters showing how close you are. In Term Match, six terms appear as colored tiles; swap neighbors to line up three or more of the same term, and each match shows what the term means. In Term Pairs, twelve face-down cards hide six pairs of terms; flip two at a time to find each pair, and every pair you find shows what the term means. In Term Search, five terms hide in a grid of letters, reading across, down or diagonally; drag across a term to circle it, and each term you find shows what it means.
