We are all very happy to announce the new and amazing “Welcome to Mount Vernon” renovations that are nearing completion to our FBO. Thanks to the Mount Vernon Airport Authority, the facility inside and out has been thoroughly cleaned up and modernized along with additional and new parking and the addition of the new Pilots 24-hour access built onto the front of SRT Aviation. This addition was created to allow 24/7 access to a bathroom, weather information station, device charging, and rest along with refreshments and is beautifully heated and cooled. We welcome all to Mount Vernon and to SRT Aviation and look forward to seeing you.
Our growth in flight training and our amazing and skilled flight instructors welcome you and any questions towards learning to fly or getting current in one of our Cessna 172’s or SLSA Aeroprakt aircraft. Please come by and talk to Jay Grafton or any other of our amazing instructors. Don’t miss another week of delaying your flight training. We have also acquired a new Redbird simulator. Call today to get on the schedule, rain or shine.
The Importance of Dynamic Propeller Balancing
Balancing your aircraft propeller increases the life of your engine, improves performance, reduces vibration and saves maintenance dollars. An unbalanced propeller system, including spinner assembly, can cause vibration that is detectable through testing or even in-cabin by the flight crew. While annoying, the noise and movement transmitted by these vibrations are the least of the problems that can manifest. Numerous minor issues, such as cracked sheet metal, persistent avionics failures, thrown belts, and excessive light bulb failures, can be corrected by balancing. Catastrophic damage to the engine power train and other dynamic components can also occur if the imbalance isn’t addressed properly.
