Shownotes

Join Steve's guest Darren Tilman for a deep dive into aircraft exhaust system maintenance, and how dynamic propeller balancing will increase the reliability of your aircraft systems, potentially protect you from inflight failures and reduce your operational costs.

Heat cycles, slip joints, vibration and aggressive throttle application and reduction all contribute to aircraft system and exhaust system failures. Exhaust systems have an average useful life that is probably much lower than most pilots assume.

Listen and apply this discussion to save money and increase the reliability and life of your aircraft systems.
