McFarlane Aviation is now a BCP sponsor

Please join me in welcoming the team at McFarlane Aviation as our newest advertising partner at BackcountryPilot.org!

McFarlane has long been one of the aviation industry's leading manufacturers of FAA-PMA parts for general aviation aircraft. Many of us have used their Cessna seat rails or their push-pull cable controls. Take a look at their cool new "Vernier Assist" throttle control which combines the best of both throttle worlds.

They also now own and operate Flight Resource, distributing MT composite propellers in the US, and providing STCs for installation. Flight Resource has been a BCP sponsor since 2015.

Here's a statement from the folks at McFarlane:

-----

McFarlane is very excited to support the backcountry pilot community! We’re an FAA-PMA manufacturer of replacement aircraft parts. We design our products to be superior in quality and provide a longer service life than the OEM. Plus, our parts are lower in cost – some products up to 60% less than the equivalent OEM part!

We strive to keep your flights safe, smooth, and enjoyable. Our engineers strongly consider the conditions that backcountry pilots experience – each product we design, we look into the maintenance and service history so your parts are manufactured with the best materials that will last longer, especially in different environments.

We also proudly distribute a wide variety of general aviation products and accessories, including over 30 well-known GA brands. Additionally, we are the largest PMA cable manufacturer and industry leader in push-pull control cables. We make custom door cables, flight cables, push-pull controls, and provide additional services. We truly are a one-stop-shop; we have everything you need from nose to tail!

Follow us on social media for our latest product videos and photos! We recently highlighted the strength and durability of MT propellers – perfect for your backcountry needs.

Yep, used them since I can't remember when! Never had a problem with anything from them and it's always a good bunch to deal with!

Welcome aboard! I'm planning to install a vernier-assist throttle cable at my next condition inspection.

I installed a McFarlane Vernier Assist throttle control when I built my Zenith CH750. It works perfectly. I love it!

Re: McFarlane Aviation is now a BCP sponsor

I’ve been wanting a vernier-assist mixture for a while now, just haven’t pulled the trigger yet.

I love your engine baffle seals! They’re still holding up great 5 years along now!

My favourite aircraft parts supplier by a long shot. Glad they’re here and hope they see an increase in orders as a result. We need them to thrive for us to remain viable.

Re: McFarlane Aviation is now a BCP sponsor

Its great to see McFarlane joining BCP, and combined with Flight Resource MT prop distribution, even better, whoever is on the verge for the Vernier assist throttle, I would say go for it, I highly recommend it
