"Blades of Glory - What Every Pilot Should Know about Propellers"
Saturday, February 20, 2016 12:00 Pacific Standard Time

Located at:
San Carlos Flight Center
655 Skyway Road
Suite 215
San Carlos, CA 94070

Description:

Is this tiny nick on the propeller an airworthiness item? How perfect does the paint need to be to keep the propeller balanced? If my propeller isn’t completely broken, do I still need to send it to the shop? San Carlos Flight Center has invited Samantha Bloodhart and Brian Sullivan of Sullivan Propellers for an enlightening and educational presentation to promote awareness of safety related propeller and propeller governor issues.

Sam and Brian will review basic knowledge such as the design differences between the major manufacturers, fixed pitch vs. constant speed operation, realistic evaluation of condition that anyone can accomplish, and the inherent dangers of deferring propeller (or any other aircraft) maintenance. They will discuss some of the common propeller Airworthiness Directives that are owner-operator responsibility (not just mechanics). Finally, they will explain the differences between overhaul, dynamic balancing, and other major types of propeller/governor service.  This is all supported with numerous of photos and Brian’s 30+ years of anecdotes (some amusing and some amazing).

All current and aspiring pilots and aircraft owners are encouraged to attend.
