McFarlane Aviation is expanding its structural repair solutions with a new partnership with Hutch Aviation.
Hutch Aviation’s line of Cessna forward doorpost reinforcement service kits and associated components will now be offered through McFarlane. These Alternative Method of Compliance (AMOC) kits address fatigue and cracking issues in the forward doorpost area, the important structural region where the wing strut attaches to many strut-braced Cessna models, according to McFarlane Aviation officials.
This area is the focus of an FAA Airworthiness Directive that mandates inspection and repair due to decades of stress and structural degradation.
The Hutch kits reinforce the forward doorpost structure on a wide range of models, including the Cessna 172, 182, 206, 207, and 210, according to company officials, who note the forward doorpost reinforcement kits will be “especially valuable” to customers “facing aging-airframe maintenance challenges.”
