Many aircraft maintenance professionals liken what we do as aircraft maintenance professionals to doctors. After all, doctors are responsible for the health and well-being of their patients. Similarly, we are responsible for the health and well-being of the aircraft we maintain.

Is It Possible to Wash a PW Engine Too Much?

I was recently asked by a customer, “Is it possible to wash my Pratt & Whitney engine too much?” The operator considered his inquiry to be silly when, in fact, it’s a very valid question. In fact, it’s important to periodically clean your engine as a part of preventive maintenance. And, if you operate your aircraft in adverse environments, such as air pollution and salt-water exposure, it’s very important to increase your wash schedule. Here's why.

It’s About Attitude

As I chat with directors of maintenance, I always like to ask what they look for in new employees. Just about every one of them says that having a positive attitude is at the top of the list. Technical knowledge can be taught. But if someone has a bad attitude, they make life hard for the whole team.
