Thank you for the warm welcome. I am the owner of Av-Mech LLC, a full service GA maintenance facility located in Leesburg FL. I have been close friends with the Owner of Airflow Systems for many years. The time has come where the owner has decided to retire and he and I have been looking at ways to bring back his STC with a new owner. That would be me.
The original manufacturer of the Airflow Systems STC sold them for a while and did very well with his kit. He is more of a developer than a sales guy and so he eventually got busy designing other products. He did not continue to market the system and so interest was low and sales slumped. During his peak with the STC, Aviation Consumer magazine rated the Airflow Systems STC the best Intercooler kit for the Mooney 231. It provides better demonstrated performance than the Turbo Plus STC and it installs much quicker with no paint work required. My intention is to bring the STC back on the market following some basic market surveys. I need to determine if there is actually a desire and if those who desire are truly willing to buy. It is quite expensive to get this back on the market and like any business I need to establish wether my investment is likely to provide and ROI.
The kit today will be brought out at a lower price than Turbo Plus and the cost for install is much lower.
