Jewell
Aviation has
been in the
aircraft
maintenance
business
since 1975.
Aircraft
maintenance
has always
been and
will
continue to
be our main
business.
We
have always
prided
ourselves in
having the
best quality
maintenance
and most
reasonable
prices in
the entire
area.
We
have an I.A.
and over 33
years
experience
in general
aviation
maintenance
and pride
ourselves on
doing
maintenance
on all types
of aircraft.
The
following is
a summary of
how we
conduct
business and
our cost.
Our normal
procedure
for
inspection
is to
generate a
list of
discrepancies
when the
inspection
is
completed.
We
then contact
the customer
and discuss
what must to
be
accomplished
in order to
complete the
annual
inspection.
This
is our
normal
procedure
unless the
customer
tells us in
advance not
to call him
and to do
whatever it
takes to
annual the
aircraft.
Our labor
rate is
$65.00 per
hour.
Our
overtime
rate is
$85.00 per
hour.
Our
"Away From
Shop" rate
is $75.00
per hour,
including
travel time.
"After
Hours" work
is
available,
but we must
have your
approval for
overtime
prior to the
actual
overtime.
Our
normal
working
hours are
from 8:00
a.m. to 5:00
p.m. on
Monday
through
Friday.
We do not
allow
customers to
supply their
own parts.
Exceptions
can be made,
but not
without
prior
approval.
Any
parts that
we order
which are
over
$1000.00
must be paid
in advance
due to
C.O.D.
shipping
methods used
by the
majority of
our aircraft
parts
suppliers.
We must
receive
payment when
the aircraft
is completed
and picked
up.
The
only
exception
involves
arrangements
made prior
to the pick
up date.
All
log books
and
paperwork
will be kept
until the
work order
is paid.
We do
accept most
credit cards
We look
forward to
serving you
in the
future.
Thank

| Parts Deposit Policy |
|
Our standard policy is to get the engine into the shop and perform
a tear down and inspection. At that point we make a complete parts list and
advise the customer of the cost. We then order the parts and notify the
customer of the C.O.D. parts amount. This way the parts payment and parts
arrive at the same time. Some customers may want the parts sent directly to
them C.O.D., this is acceptable to us with the understanding that we make 10%
from our parts sales therefore, we would need to charge 10% above the C.O.D.
charge.
We accept MasterCard, Visa, AMEX, and Discover. There is a 3% service charge
for all credit card transactions.
The labor for the overhaul will be due when the aircraft is delivered or picked
up. We perform an engine break-in free of charge. The owner is expected to pay
for the fuel used during the break-in period. |
|
| Warranty Policy |
|
We at Jewell Aviation have a policy of 100-hour warranties or one
year which ever occurs first, on parts and labor for any defect in workmanship
on engine majors. This warranty is to be accomplished by us in our shop when at
all possible. Any work done without prior authorization voids our warranty. In
the event that the engine cannot be brought to us, we reserve the right to come
to the aircraft and make necessary repairs or corrections.
Jewell Aviation cannot be responsible for any problem with the engine caused by
an item or items such as accessories, which were not overhauled or replaced at
the time of overhaul as per the customer’s request nor items or parts supplied
by the customer. Items overhauled by anyone other than Jewell Aviation or
assemblies such as cylinders, starter clutches, etc are not covered under our
warranty, those claims should be made directly to the facility, which did the
manufacturing, overhaul or repair.
In the event of an improper break in or for some reason the rings do not seat
properly, Jewell Aviation will furnish the labor to correct the problem, but
the owner will be responsible for all parts. In the event that the owner
chooses not to bring the aircraft back to us to correct the problem, Jewell
Aviation allows a maximum of three hours per cylinder for removal and
installation; however, this needs to be approved by Jewell Aviation before
removal of the cylinders. Any cylinders removed from the aircraft must be
returned to Jewell Aviation for inspection prior to any work being done on the
cylinders. As mentioned in the above, we reserve the right to come to the
aircraft or to fly the aircraft to our facility providing the aircraft is still
airworthy.
All engines must use non-detergent oil for the first 100 hours of operation and
oil changes must be at 25-hour intervals for the first 100 hours. Due to the
manufacturer’s recommendation for parts, no auto fuel is to be used for the
first 100 hours of operation.
Jewell Aviation will not be responsible for any down time or loss of revenue
while repairs or adjustments are being made. |
