Aircraft engines are complex machines that rely on numerous subsystems and assembly parts to operate as expected. Among the many components that support functionality, air pumps in particular play a notable role in enabling performance, reliability, and efficiency. While often overlooked compared to turbines, compressors, or fuel systems, it is important for operators to have a basic understanding of air pumps to optimize airflow, pressurization, and system support for various types of aircraft engines.
