Palm Beach
Propeller Visit on September 11, 2007
(Click on any photo to enlarge)
We want to thank D.E. O'Neill (Mom), Mike O'Neill, Larry Harris and Jeff Hebron
for providing our Chapter with an informative and interesting tour of their
facilities. It's amazing to see what all needs to occur when a prop is brought
in, from seemingly simple tasks such as labeling every part removed from the
assembly to computerized measurements of various stations along the axis of the
prop. Approximately 30 members and guests attended this event and all went
away with a much better understanding of the metallurgy, chemistry and other
processes involved in returning a prop to the customer in a like-new condition.
Bill Seigal's Homemade EFIS presented on October 9, 2008
(Click on any photo to enlarge)
The first two photos are of the group
attending Bill's lecture and discussion on "How To Build Your Own EFIS"! Bill Seigal not only provided information on how to build one of these great displays
for your aircraft, he also brought a working model of one that he built for
his plane. It included GPS, Moving Map, Flight Planning, and more... all in a
Windows format. Contact the club for more information if you want to build
one of Bill's Homemade EFIS!
Palm
Beach International Airport Fire Rescue
Station
(Click on any photo to enlarge)
After reviewing many of the functions of
the Fire Rescue crew at Palm Beach International, we went outside to witness how
a fire is handled when the interior of an aircraft is on fire. A nozzle
with a pointed end is used to penetrate the skin of the aircraft allowing the
nozzle to remain inside the aircraft. Then the flow of water and foam is sent
through the hose to extinguish the flames inside the aircraft without having to
actually enter the aircraft. In addition, we got a complete tour of the
facilities including many of the trucks and emergency vehicles used by this
professional organization.
