Field Issues
Deice lead restrainer strap installation Still having issues with tearing deice
boots Purpose of the restrainer strap is to hold
down the lead not the boot Looking at the feasibility of leaving the
restrainer strap location the same but positioning the boot farther outboard
Field Issues
Cad plated hardware You may notice a change in the
appearance of the Cad plating on some of our hardware. We are changing from type I to type II.
Enlist your Help
We also want your help.
Let us know if you have any ideas for new STC’s or other products to add to our line up.
