AWI receives PMA muffler approvals for C-172s

By Janice Wood · October 2, 2012 ·

EAGAN, Minn. — Aerospace Welding Minneapolis has expanded its “AeroPower” Premium PMA Exhaust Line. The company recently gained FAA-PMA approval for installation of its A1754001-23 and A1754001-25 C-172 mufflers on the C-172R and S models.

This approval will help to reduce exhaust maintenance costs by as much as 70% compared to a new factory muffler, according to company officials.

As Tom Heid, President of AWI explained: “The AWI Team is constantly searching for ways to reduce the cost of exhaust maintenance for all owners of general aviation aircraft. We will continue to search for ways to make flying more affordable, and to provide the highest level of both safety and value to the general aviation community.”

Aerospace Welding Minneapolis, Inc. (AWI) is an FAA and EASA Certified Repair Station for weld repairs and an FAA-approved PMA facility. It specializes in aircraft exhaust overhauls, as well as engine mount and turbo mount repairs.
