To Be Held In January At Lakeland, And Sebring
Rotax aircraft engine expert Phillip
Lockwood will present an introduction for Airframe & Powerplant
(A&P) mechanics who would like to begin working on the rapidly
growing US fleet of Rotax-powered special light-sport aircraft
(SLSA). The free seminar may also be helpful to SLSA owners and
dealers with aircraft powered by Rotax engines.
The presentation will be held on January 5, 2008 as part of the
FAA Production Studios January Sport Aviation Seminar. The event
runs from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm and will take place at the Sun 'n Fun
FAA Safety center at Lakeland Linder Airport (LAL).
Lockwood’s Rotax presentation is scheduled for 1:00 p.m.
As president of Rotax service center Lockwood Aviation Supply,
Phillip Lockwood will offer his insight into the best ways to
maintain and operate your Rotax 9 series aircraft engine. His talk,
titled "Rotax 912 Introduction to Service and Maintenance," will
demystify the current FAA requirements for performing maintenance
on Rotax powered SLSA.
"It is the perfect introduction for A&P mechanics being
asked to perform maintenance on the enlarging U.S. fleet of
Light-Sport Aircraft," said Lockwood.
Lockwood Aviation Supply has donated an Icom air band handheld
transceiver valued at more than $300.00 dollars and an ASA DVD
titled "Rotax 912 Engine Introduction to Basic Operation and
Maintenance for Pilots and Mechanics" valued at $49.00. All who
register at the beginning of the FAA’s January Sport Aviation
Seminar will have a chance to win one of the items for free.
Lockwood will also give his informative presentation during the
2008 Sebring US Sport Aviation Expo on January 17-19, each day at
10:30 am, in one of the forum hangars.
