  • Aircraft Engine Analyzer - Best Engine Monitors to Keep Your Engine Healthy, Efficient & Safe
    Oct 25, 2017 02:36 EDT Aircraft Engine Analyzer - Best Engine Monitors To Keep Your Engine Healthy, Efficient & Safe It’s uncommon for an aircraft engine to simply just stop working; there’s a reason or there’s a chain of events that cause a mechanical breakdown. There are certain components of the engine that fails and cause power loss. The most common ones are the crankshaft, main bearings, pistons, cylinders, magnetos and the connecting rods. Usually, the bottom portion of the engine is pretty sturdy and solid to withstand a lot. The top part of the engine which includes the pistons, cylinders, valves, gears, etc. is a lot less sturdy. This is where the engine analyzer comes in handy. It does its part in catching problems with these more at risk components early on to save the engine from a bigger and more expensive destruction. An engine having a fix up as many times possible is common and many of the components aren't replaced. This means they have to tolerate many TBOs (time between overhauls). If these components happen to fail, they usually do so early on in their life from either being defective or overheating. The best type of analyzers are the ones that do long-term performance logging and allows data to be downloaded. Technicians can then create reports from this raw data. These reports are useful to look at and provide a visual of the engine's condition. They also can show an in-depth look if something goes wrong or an accident happens. The best kind of Aircraft Engine Analyzer is the one that displays cylinder head temperature (CHT) and exhaust gas temperature (EGT) on all present cylinders.

The private rated pilot, who was the sole occupant on board the airplane, sustained fatal injuries and the airplane was destroyed. The airplane was registered to Grand River Emergency Department Consultants LLC, and operated by the pilot under the provisions of 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 as a personal flight. Dark night instrument meteorological conditions prevailed and an Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) flight plan was filed. The cross-country flight originated at the Ankeny Regional Airport (IKV), Ankeny, Iowa, about 2200. A friend of the pilot reported on the afternoon of October 13, the pilot left DBQ and flew to IKV, arriving about 1700.

    THE HOBBS METER THE RVATOR FOURTH ISSUE 20099 6,357 COMPLETED RVS Thirty-seven RVs participated in a formation demonstration at AirVenture 2009, celebrating Van’s 37th year at The Show. ROUND NUMBERS NUMBER ONE! The first customer-built RV-12 to fly left the ground Sept. 20, 2009, piloted by builder Brad Stiefvater of Salem, South Dakota. The event occurred just as we were posting this issue so complete coverage will have to wait until next time. NUMBER 100 The fledgling Light Sport Aircraft category reached an important milestone has been this summer when Van's RV-12 became the 100th LSA model to be approved according to the Light Aircraft Manufacturers Association (LAMA). NUMBER 200 We have no idea which RV-10 was the 200th to fly in chronological time, but the 200th to appear in the Hobbs Meter section of our website was serial 40473, built by Tom Gesele of West Islip, New York. “Holy Sh**, I love this plane!” Tom says, after making the first flight on August 14. N629RV is powered by an IO-540/Hartzell com- bination. Avionics include a 2 screen Grand Rapids EFIS, Garmin GNS-480 + GTX-330, Electronics International MVP-50, and TruTrak VSGV A/P. NUMBER 3000 RV-8 kit 83000 recently flew...well, it flew in a Cessna 180. Tom Carter recently flew from his home in Big Fork, MT to pick up an empennage kit for an RV-8. It will replace his F-16, which he had to give back to the government when he retired. When we rang up the order, it showed customer number 83000 — the 3000th empennage kit deliv- ered since the RV-8 was introduced in 1996.
