We have all been there on a preflight: You come to the point in the checklist when it calls for a check of the tire pressure. Be honest. How many times have you just eye-balled the tire and considered it safe for flight?
Tire Pressure Monitor Puts Data to a Smartphone App
Key Takeaways:
- Many aircraft incidents and accidents, particularly runway excursions, are linked to tire failures often caused by inadequate pressure, which pilots frequently overlook during preflight checks.
- Beringer-Aero introduces SensAir, a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that integrates into their wheels and communicates with a smartphone app to display real-time tire pressure and temperature.
- The SensAir system offers easy installation into Beringer wheels, features encapsulated batteries lasting 2-3 years, and is awaiting STC approval for experimental and light sport aircraft.
