The Redundancy Trap

The best way to protect yourself against mechanical failure is to have a backup. Or is it? Maintenance expert Mike Busch discusses why redundancy isn't always all it's cracked up to be.Savvy Aviation offers Professional Maintenance Services to owners of General Aviation aircraft, such as: Savvy Mx (Professional Maintenance Management), Savvy QA (Expert Consulting), Savvy Prebuy, SavvyAnalysis (Engine Data Analysis) and Savvy Breakdown Assistance. For more info see savvyaviation.com and www.sportys.com.... This channel offers videos about those services, and webinars hosted by Mike Busch which were produced by the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) and sponsored by Aircraft Spruce and Specialty.

You are an ENCYCLOPEDIA of information. I am very experienced but I also learn a LOT from your Webinars. Thank you for increasing Aviation Safety with sharing your vast knowledge and experience. I enjoy listening to and watching your Webinars on UA-cam.

Thank you so much for sharing all this. Aviation likes obscurity and bias. Thanks for setting facts straight.

CLOSEST I think I came to being involved in an incident - MAG failure! One mag gone - and the 2nd one just barely hanging together in a Cessna 182.

How is it that car/truck engine never have these spark plug issues. It’s crazy.
