Title:
Aging Aircraft and Cylinder/Crankcase Through Bolt Preload
Topic:
Maintaining Aging General Aviation Aircraft and the Importance of Correct Torque on Engine Cylinder/Crankcase Thru Bolt Preload.
Speaker(s):
Richard Jeffs
Brief Description:
This presentation is designed to give you an overview of guidance on maintaining the airworthiness of the aging general aviation aircraft fleet and covers inspection/maintenance guidance on older aircraft for owners of older, small single-engine airplanes and the technicians who maintain them. We will offer helpful tips for assessing the effects of aging on their airplane. They will also find that this program guides user groups or type clubs to develop a checklist and gather reference information specific to a model type.
Although targeted specifically for small single-engine airplanes, much of the information in this presentation applies to the entire GA fleet. Actions owners take based on these best practices will help protect their investment and, more importantly, help maintain the safety of their airplanes.
