Aircraft Specialty Flightlines, an AirVenture Veteran, has been innovating safer, more capable and easier to use components for experimental amateur aircraft builders for years. This year, they brought three new innovations to the show.
Braided pressure hoses have been an essential part of aircraft and race car construction for decades. The only problem is that it is not easy to fabricate hose end fittings without special skill and tools. Aircraft Specialty Flightlines has developed hose ends that can be easily installed in the field without special tools or skill. This comes in handy when the hoses need to be routed through holes that are smaller than the hose ends. The new hose ends come in straight, 90 degree and 45 degree fittings for most applications and sizes.
Folks building anything with a Beringer brake setup will benefit from Aircraft Specialties new Beringer parking brake bracket, with integrated switch for a parking brake annunciation on the panel. This will come in handy with many RV-10 and RV-14 builders.
For the fighter pilot at heart, Aircraft Specialties has crafted ergonomic knobs for your throttle, mixture and prop levers. No more plastic blandness beneath your left hand. These knobs are substantial, ergonomic and really nice looking.
