Aeromatic Prop Service Bulletin
Posted: Mon Feb 12, 2001 11:23 pm
' On 31 July 2000 the FAA approved a service bulletin for Aeromatic propellers describing a visual inspection procedure for dry rot of the blades and corrosion of the blade screws. This is a mandatory inspection to be carried out every 100 hrs, and is in response to reports of in-flight failures of the props.
I've just place a copy of the service bulletin in the files section of the fairchild club group page located at: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/fairchildclub/files/ The file name is "Aeromatic SB2000-001.pdf ". The document is in Adobe Portable Document Format (.pdf) and requires the free Adobe Acrobat Reader to view it. Most personal computers ship with Acrobat Reader installed, but if you need a copy it is available free at:
