Engine Trend Monitoring as a Safety Tool - Episode 263

Engine Trend Monitoring as a Safety Tool - Episode 263

The investigation of a 2023 Beechcraft Bonanza in Brazil led to an unusual recommendation. The Brazilian authorities find that an engine trend monitoring program could have prevented the accident.

In this event, the pilot made a successful off-field landing after the engine failed. The investigation found that the failure was due to a leak in the mechanical pump and fuel controller.

The aircraft was on a relatively long flight in Brazil when the pilot diverted to an airport near his intended destination. The investigation found that the engine was operated beyond the manufacturer's suggested time between overhauls, but that this did not violate regulations in Brazil.

Greg Feith discusses his plan to buy a new airplane and why he is planning to include a monitoring program for his aircraft.
