airframe basics

[Mike]

I have been looking for some resources on the Internet (including AOPA's
member section) for some basics on airframe construction. In my studying
to become a pilot, I have come across references to spars, bulkheads,
and other A&P terminology that I don't have an understanding for. Can
anyone point me in the right direction? I could probably purchase an A&P
book, but I'd like to avoid that expense if possible. Thanks.

You can find the FAA books on the FAA web pages as free PDF
files, hope you have broadband.

The EAA www.eaa.org also has materials on aircraft.
