AirWard offers this series of inexpensive Kits to comply with the Piper Mandatory SB1006. The Kits save you over 40% on the price of sourcing everything and are very convenient. Each Kit contains just the right amount of materials and are complete right down to the screws, gaskets and instructions. Everything you need to deal with the service all in one box.
-
Inspect for corrosion and treat the spar areas behind the Fuel Tanks
- Replace fuel/vent lines that are now very old and brittle.
Most Pipers have never had their tanks off. Unchecked spar corrosion and deteriorating Fuel Hoses present significant safety and longevity problems. Let alone loss of investment.
For those of you that do NOT have access to a Pneumatic Screw Removal Tool Kit. We have them available from Aircraft Tool Supply. This Kit, AT540A-KIT, is very helpful for those stubborn Fuel Tank Screws. The last thing you want to do is strip the head on one of these screws - as this will make removing a Fuel Tank a miserable job. You need access to a Pneumatic Rivet Gun to use this Kit.
Piper Mandatory Service Bulletin (MSB1006) should be complied with every 7 years
NO FAA Form 8130-3 will be included. If any HOSES require FAA Form 8130-3 - call/e-mail for quote.
All MSB1006 Kits are shipped Ground (UPS/FedEx) due to Ardrox (Dinitrol) AV 8 Corrosion Preventative being flammable, HAZMAT;
You may want to consider complying with Piper Service Spares Letter (SSL503) - installation of Access Panels behind Fuel Tanks to provide access and inspection to the Fuel Transmitters.
You may want to consider complying with Piper MSB1375, Main Gear Hardware Replacement, at this time - as the Fuel Tanks are removed. This requires removal of the Screws and Bolts from the Main Gear through the "Lightning" Holes in the Main Spar. The Hardware Kit is MSB1375.
