The assessment of electromagnetic field in commonly used training aircrafts

The article is concerned with the assessment of the electromagnetic field produced by the devices that aircrafts are equipped with. Three different types of training aircrafts were selected for the analysis. The airplanes utilised in the research differed in terms of wings and stabilator systems. The following machines were compared: Top Decker Cessna C172, low Decker Aero AT-3 and helicopter Robinson R44. The values of electromagnetic field intensification obtained that can affect the pilot were compared with the limit and normative ones. The maximum values taken with the ESM-100 meter within the frequency ranging from 5Hz to 400kHz were registered for the Robinson R44 in the pilot cockpit during the machine operation. The highest value of electric component intensification obtained was E=0.88 kV/m and magnetic induction was B=6219nT for the Robinson R44 avionics.
