MAGNETO 500 HOUR INSPECTION

Everyone is happy that physical inventory is done and work has resumed on airplanes. I'm happy to have all the inventory changes made in the computer, 2008 books closed, 2008 files replaced with 2009 files, receipting program achived and updated for 2009, tax reports, 1099's and W-2's done. With a "sigh of relief" we are back in the normal day-to-day operating mode. Several have been out of the hangar, falling victim to the "stomach flu" virus that is going around. Dennis took a break from paperwork to lend a hand with the Pfeiffer Aztec annual inspection. Here Dennis is instructing and overseeing Gertjan on a 500 hour magneto inspection. The magneto must be "torn down", parts inspected and perhaps replaced, tolerance levels checked. They were having a great time together when I stopped in to take this photo and as I watched Gertjan measure the "tolerance level" smiles broke out as the magneto was "right on". One more day meeting training goals, serving others while inspecting their airplane that will continue to be used in evangelism, and an opportunity to return to God the skills He has given us to use for His kingdom. To God be the glory.

Hi Holly, It's good to hear from you. I do remember Jeremy and that he was from Iowa. I'm not sure where he is now, so I'm not much help. Mary
