I liked that the simulation provided a practical introduction to aircraft engine conceptual design and allowed me to apply engineering concepts such as bypass ratio, compression ratio, engine sizing, efficiency, emissions, and design tradeoffs. The research-based tasks helped me understand how different propulsion parameters influence overall engine and aircraft performance.

I highly appreciated the real-world engineering approach. The trade-off analysis between SAF, Hydrogen, and Jet-A, followed by writing a technical memo to the Lead Engineer, provided an excellent look into daily engineering decision-making. Structuring a presentation on bypass and compression ratios was also a very practical exercise.

I enjoyed the practical and technical nature of the simulation. It helped me understand how engineers evaluate propulsion-system design decisions, especially bypass ratio, compression ratio, efficiency, and emissions. The tasks gave me a better understanding of how engineering concepts are applied to real-world aerospace problems.
