Repack By RG Mechanics)
Vickiana Sconyers
The FCC first released notice of the panelists for a September 30 discussion of how the repacking of TV spectrum will take place, discussing the likely mechanics of the repacking and the ways that the repacking can be accomplished efficiently. (For more on the discussion, go to this page on the FCC website). Representatives of the FCC will moderate panels of trade association representatives, engineers and others to discuss the repacking process. The discussion will be webcast by the FCC (go here for the webcast on September 30).
The Commission did encourage commenters to identify these additional expense categories that should be eligible for reimbursement. It also seeks comment on the prices associated with the hard and soft costs included in the Catalog of Eligible Expenses; the availability of discounts from list prices, including discounts for bulk orders; and whether to require entities seeking reimbursement from the Fund to obtain competitive bids for equipment and services that exceed a certain dollar threshold.
Comments will be due on this notice by October 31, with Reply Comments due on November 14. Television broadcasters should carefully review these proposals to make sure that all anticipated reimbursement categories are included and, if not, that comments are filed pointing out any deficiencies.

A maintenance shop can be a good resource to consult before acquiring an aircraft. It can be useful to talk to your mechanic about which make and model of aircraft best suits your clubs needs. Mechanics can help identify major concerns with different aircraft, such as expensive airworthiness directives (ADs), recurring costs for specific maintenance on an aircraft type (like a ballistic parachute repack), or the ease of finding parts.
When selecting an aircraft, consider the future cost of replacing the engine when it becomes due. Every hour your aircraft flies is an hour closer to its engine overhaul. For this reason, most clubs have an engine reserve fund. The basic formula for estimating an engine reserve is below:
Calculating your routine maintenance costs, engine reserve, and fuel costs will provide your club the information it will need to set fees and hourly rates to support the aircraft now and in the future. Having a sound financial foundation will help the club succeed.

Mechanical seals were invented to prevent unnecessary maintenance...to prevent the time to repack pumps, the cost and effort to replace shafts or shaft sleeves, to prevent the downtime that it takes to repack a leaking shaft seal. In an act of continuous improvement, split mechanical seals were invented to prevent the downtime it takes to replace a leaking seal.
Your predictive maintenance technician has taken data about a dryer roll bearing indicating an impending failure. Additional inspection reveals that the oil is full of metal filings, and further investigation indicates that the idler gears are bottoming out against the drive gears, causing failure.
In these competitive markets, requiring capital intensive assets, like pulp and paper manufacturing, preventive maintenance has become the way of life and the results are positively astonishing in terms of resource efficiency improvement and optimization of capacity and product quality to customer demand
