Don’t let bad weather add to your travel frustrations

1 February 2016   Aircraft Maintenance Hangar Space

With winter comes rain, snow, sleet… and travel nightmares. With frustration over delayed and cancelled flights increasing over this season, it’s no surprise that business and leisure travellers are turning to private aircraft companies to help them get to where they need to be. But how do private airports like Monmouth Jet Center manage to offer a solution when large national and international airports and carriers can’t?

  • More airport options: There are far more private airports than commercial options, as they don’t require the same infrastructure and support. This means that private airplane companies can be more flexible with their flight plans, flying around bad weather and avoiding areas where the weather has made the airport inaccessible.
  • Quick turnaround times: Commercial airliners can easily get grounded by bad weather, leaving hundreds of passengers stranded for days or even weeks. Smaller private jets have a much faster turnaround time, allowing them to start using runways safely as soon as the weather allows. This makes all the difference when you need to get the first available flight out to your destination.
  • Manageable infrastructure: Private aircraft are able to use much smaller runways than their commercial counterparts. These runways can be cleared quickly in the event of a window in the weather, allowing you to get up in the air as soon as possible.
  • Reduced traffic: Flight backlogs can leave you stranded even after the weather has cleared – but not at private airports where there is less traffic and a fast turnaround time on private flights.
  • De-icing services: The cost of de-icing a private jet – as well as any delays – is carried by the charter company, ensuring that your ticket stays on budget regardless of the weather.

Aircraft Maintenance is the Key to Safety in Aviation

15 August 2015   Aircraft Maintenance

Regular aircraft maintenance is one of the most important commitments that should be made by every aircraft owner and enforced by several airworthiness authorities in the USA and internationally. However, this is a part of aircraft ownership that’s not just about following the law – it also has important benefits:

  • Safety – This is the most obvious reason to maintain your aircraft, as regular services and repairs will allow you to avoid accidents that can be caused by mechanical failures. This keeps you, your crew, your passengers and the people on the ground safe throughout your flight.
  • Avoid lost flights – Having to cancel flights due to mechanical failures is a sure way to affect your bottom line as well as the reputation of your brand.
  • Efficient performance – Aircraft operate at their best and most cost-efficient when they are properly maintained. By following manufacturer guidelines and performing operational checks, you save on fuel and other costs.
  • Prevents major breakdowns – A small maintenance issue can quickly turn into a costly and potentially dangerous one if not attended to quickly. Simply leaving small issues will only result in higher costs down the line.
  • Keep clients comfortable – world class jet centers such as Monmouth Jet Center offer exclusive services and need their aircraft to be maintained in order to deliver. Even small plumbing, seating or electrical problems in the cabin can make for an uncomfortable ride.

    Aircraft Maintenance Services and Private Airports Work to Reduce the Risks of Foreign Object amage

    1 August 2015   Aircraft Maintenance

    As aviation specialists know, damage caused by Foreign Object Debris (FOD) is one of the industries most costly issues, with The Boeing Company estimating annual aircraft maintenance, delays and repairs at $4 billion a year.FOD can generally be defined as any object which does not belong to an aircraft that can cause damage to the aircraft, injury to crew and passengers or damage to airport facilities. They most commonly take the form of:

  • Rocks, sand and pebbles.
  • Nuts, bolts and loose hardware.
  • Garbage, such as soda cans and food wrappers.
  • Material from nearby construction sites.
  • Small objects such as luggage tags, pens, coins, etc.
  • Birds and other wildlife.

    • The most common types of damage caused by FOD include:

  • Punctures and damage to tires in aircraft and airport vehicles.
  • Damage to engines, engine inlets and fan blades as they get sucked into aircraft.
  • Injuries to airport personnel and passengers from FOD blown up into the air.
  • Damage to delicate equipment if they become trapped inside the housing.
  • Mechanical freezing due to objects becoming lodged next to levers, etc.

    • Due to the fact that any one of these issues is dangerous in itself and that they can lead to far worse tragedies, as illustrated by the crash of Air France flight 4590 where the aircraft hit titanium debris and burst a tire, responsible airports take extensive measures to ensure the removal of FOD.

    These measures may differ from airport to airport, but generally include a four-step approach:

  • Training staff on the importance of identifying and properly removing/managing FOD.
  • Regular inspections of areas which can be a source of FOD or where they are likely to collect. This includes monitoring construction sites, aircraft maintenance areas, hangars, etc.
  • Clearing away FOD safely and efficiently and monitoring teams assigned to removing FOD.

    • Monmouth Jet Center offers industry-leading services

    At Monmouth Jet Center, we prioritize the safety of the passengers, crews and aircraft which utilize our facility. In addition to applying an industry-leading FOD damage prevention policy, we have a team of dedicated on-site aircraft mechanics available to assist you with general maintenance, repairs and more at your convenience.

    Tips on Aircraft Mechanic Services in NJ

    19 July 2015   Aircraft Maintenance Marlboro Aircraft Services, LLC

    As with your vehicle, your aircraft requires regular oil changes in order to run safely and maintain optimal performance – but knowing exactly when to change your oil can be difficult. The general rule of thumb is to perform an oil change every four months or 50 flight hours – whichever you achieve first. It’s also a good idea to change the oil if elevated wear metals are detected, or if your aircraft has recently undergone engine maintenance.

    The reason for the 50 flight hour/four month change is simple – by this point, your oil has become contaminated with the byproducts of engine use, which include sulfur, nitrogen oxides, carbon, water and other materials.

    Rather than breaking down the oil’s lubricating properties, these contaminants themselves are the real problem. They have highly corrosive properties and, when they build up to a sufficiently high concentration, they can damage your crankshaft, camshaft, gears and lifters, causing serious damage to your engine and creating a real safety issue. In addition to preventing this, a new oil change restores the necessary levels of acidic neutralizers in your aircraft’s oil which protect your engine.

    If your aircraft is due for an oil change, we also recommend that you use this opportunity to inspect and replace your oil filters. This will give you a better indication of your aircraft’s engine health and provide better protection against corrosion.
