Another happy customer: John Miller from Pittsburgh Flying Club.
Thank you, John. It was a pleasure working with you.
I wanted to drop you a line to let you know how pleased we are with our Electroair’s EI. I have overseen maintenance for our Flying Club for over 20 years. We decided, for our Piper Archer at engine overhaul, that we wanted to improve the performance and reliability of the airplane. After much research, we decided on the Electroair system. With over 20 different personalities flying the airplane it's sometimes difficult to make a change. This was one of our best decisions for the aircraft. We are seeing improved performance, improved starts, even the hot ones and averaging 1.5 gallons of fuel savings per hour. I did the math on that recently. We have now put 600 hours on the engine since the install, 20 months ago, so we are well on our way to not only recovering the cost of the system but the install as well. This fact alone, especially now with increased fuel cost, is huge. Our maintenance schedule is strict. We perform oil changes every 40 hours, plug rotation on the top every 80 hours. These were replaced with fine wire at the 400-hour mark. The lower ones, where the EIS system is installed, have only needed cleaned and gapped to date.
Support for the system has been nothing short of outstanding; response is quick. Darrell Pool has been helpful from day one, to getting my IA through the install, to questions along the way. I have recommended this system to anyone who asks. Compared to the other systems, , it's apples to lemons.
