Subject: | The Annual Inspection - Powerplant; a new video |
--> Pietenpol-List message posted by: "Aircraft Technical Book Company" <winterland@rkymtnhi.com>
I don't normally spam on this list, but I've been working on this video for
about a year, its my first one, and I'm kinda proud of it. So here goes:
THE ANNUAL INSPECTION - POWERPLANT 55 minutes
Follow Westwood College of Aviation A&P instructors Tim Guerrera and
Vaughn Dowell through a step by step demonstration of an annual inspection
of typical Lycoming 0-360 powerplant section. This video explains every
step of the process from an initial AD search to the final log entries.
Each procedure is detailed including compression check, ignition timing,
spark plug service, exhaust pressure check, oil change, fuel system,
propeller, electrical system, etc..... , showing the proper techniques
along with plenty of professional hints and tips. A final segment details
safety wiring techniques as used throughout the powerplant section.
Most of this video was filmed at Westwood College in Denver using a
Piper Archer, however a few segments were done locally in Granby, CO with my
RV-6A and hangarmate Dave Cook's RV-6.

Thanks,

0.3 FROM_HAS_MIXED_NUMS From: contains numbers mixed in with letters
I've spent 30+ years in television, and as I begin the reassembly process of
the Continental engine that will be installed in my Pietenpol (Frankenstein)
I'm wondering if anyone would be interested in seeing the rebuild process and
installation? To limit liability, the video would be marketed as an
"entertainment" video.
My dad has an A&P license and retired with 6 type ratings and is actually
doing my overhaul. He overhauled my Lycoming 0-320 E2A when he was 82 and he is
now fast approaching 85 (not to worry, his brain is still sharp) and I learned
a great deal from him when he rebuilt my Lycoming. If anyone doesn't know what
plasti-gauge is, maybe this would be an informative video project? Ever seen
silk thread used in putting the engine case back together? I didn't until my
father rebuilt my Lycoming.
The engine that came in Frankenstein (despite having been represented as
having only 5 hours since TBO, was a basket-case and we had to tear it down. The
engine case was sent to DIVCO and had major problems and the accessory case had
to go to Drake for a rebuild too. I had to buy a new camshaft from Sacramento
Sky Ranch at nearly $500. The cam that was in my "newly rebuilt engine" was
shot.
I'm taking the crankshaft to a local machine shop due to dwindling funds and
not having any confidence in the old buzzard that sold me the plane. I'd like
to send the crankshaft to Aircraft Specialties Services, but this is getting
expensive and my engine won't be certified anyway.
If there is enough interest, I'll produce a video. If not, I'll mow my runway
and drink a cerveza.
(P.S. I produced Avid Aircraft's Marketing videos in the early 1990s and I
also produced the Mosler Factory engine installation video for their 82X engine.
Also worked on a few gigs at the White House when President Reagan was there.)
I'm looking forward to meeting everyone at Broadhead.

Sterling,
I'm interested. Have you established an APBP? That's " anticipated pietenpol
bargain price "
