Here at Hunter Aerospace, we recently completed a hot section inspection on this Pratt & Whitney PT6A-66D turboprop engine fitted to this tidy Socata TBM 850.

During inspection, we identified wear beyond limits on the CT disk and shroud, requiring specialist repair. While this extended the downtime, it ensured the engine was returned to service in full compliance and at the highest standard.

It’s a good reminder that detailed inspections matter, and catching issues early is what keeps these aircraft operating safely and reliably.

Another Citation Jet through the hangar, with an engine change and phase inspection completed last week ✈️

The project involved detailed phase inspections along with full engine removal and installation.

Great result for the aircraft and a strong effort by the team.

✈️ Last week was the week for Bonanzas here at Hunter Aerospace!
Two in the hangar at once, keeping us busy with maintenance and upgrades.
Our team has extensive experience with Beechcraft Bonanzas — from routine servicing and avionics upgrades to complete panel refreshes. Whether it’s keeping a classic flying strong or modernising the cockpit, we’ve got you covered.
If you fly a Bonanza (or any GA aircraft) and want trusted hands on your maintenance, avionics, or custom panel work — get in touch with the Hunter Aerospace team.

Another install incoming at Hunter Aerospace!⚡️

On the bench we’ve got a GTN650 and GMA345 wired up and ready to slide into the panel. These will integrate beautifully with the dual GI275s we previously installed, giving the aircraft a modern, seamless avionics suite.

To complete the package, we’ll also be fitting a fresh CNC-cut and laser-etched panel, removing all the old blanks and stickers for a clean, professional new look.
Stay tuned for the final result!

Reweigh day for this Piper Chieftain ⚖️✈️

Another Piper Chieftain on the scales for a reweigh — a crucial step in ensuring accurate weight & balance data for safe operations. We look after a few of these workhorses, and each one gets the same attention to detail from our team.

Our engineering team have recently completed a phase inspection on this Cessna Citation 501SP at our Cessnock, NSW facility.

The Citation cruises at over 300 knots, and is one of multiple high performance types we maintain.

In recent times, Cessnock Airport has undergone significant upgrades, including runway resurfacing and the addition of instrument approaches. This assists us in being able to receive these larger aircraft for maintenance, and provide additional airport options for our customers.
