MORE SUPPLY WOES

Larry Anglisano’s First Word commentary in the August 2021 issue of Aviation Consumer hits very close to home. I’m a 2004 Cirrus SR22 owner who has spent about half of the last 12 months AOG due to parts availability problems.

I had tried the SureFly magneto replacement at the last annual inspection, and it worked for about 25 hours until it no longer fired on cylinder number three. I ended up pulling it after tech support was unable to figure out the issue.
