Just when you thought it was safe to own a cessna

[Chanter]

Check out the temporary revisions to the Cessna propeller AMM's.
S.I.D's

[Colin G]

It's been on the cards for a while and I'd expect a decent engineering company to be already inspecting for corrosion on older airframes.
Cessna have simply put a directed plan in place.

Expect other manufacturers to come up with their own schemes, if they haven't already.

What's this about?

[Ian Melville]

Are Chanter and Colin G talking about the same thing

[Boxkite]

No, one's talking about props, the other about airframes.

[Colin G]

Same thing. It's the Cessna Propeller Aircraft Service Manual Temporary Revisions detailing the Corrosion prevention and Control Program for ageing aircraft.

Exactly what Colin said, Propeller AMM ( Aircraft maintenance manual ).
Some of the S.I.D's to be complied with before June 2014.

[Paul_Sengupta]

Oh, so a maintenance manual for a propeller driven aircraft rather than anything propeller related?

It triggered alarm bells in my head thinking about the Lycoming crankshaft thing.

[Chanter]

Sorry Paul for getting the old heart rate racing

[Paul_Sengupta]

I think I'd have been ok as I assume I do have a hollow crankshaft, but also I I have VP prop, so it's used for its intended purpose of sticking oil down the middle! Is this the case? (IO-360-A1B6)
