One of the most common debates in general aviation is whether the glass is half full or half empty. These days, it seems many pilots argue on the side of half-empty. Photography By James Lawrence, Writing

“A cryogenic engine overhaul is the latest innovation
in top-line engine overhaul and replacement."
Economy cruise will soon
become a way of life for those

“Using roughly the same power settings and lean
mixture at the same altitude, max cruise was about
the same or perhaps a knot or two more, but the big
change was in fuel burn,” Reid suggested.
Victor Aviation is proud to announce they have been chosen as a preferred Continental Motors & Lycoming Engine Overhaul Provider for Pinnacle Air Network.
"Victor Victorious. Victor is
in the business of remanufacturing
piston engines and turning
out the smoothest power plants
ever
built. The result has to
be flown to be believed. If you fly Sloan's
personal A36 TC,
you could very well think you
were flying an
electric motor."
Hands down, though,
the most extensive custom
overhaul is done at
Victor Aviation where
Sloan's team puts engine
parts through a dizzying
battery of tests and
measurements. The end
result of this detailed
process is increased
performance, power,
and longevity.
"After visiting Victorland and
seeing what I saw, I can only
give Victor Aviation five stars on a
scale of one to five."
"…Prince of Blueprints…"

"Blueprinters. A little extra
tweaking, and you can have
ablue ribbon engine.
Victor Aviation's
Bonanza A36
carries
passengers in comfort
with less vibration and noise."
Flying Magazine,
Fred George
"I've had the pleasure of flying a dozen aircraft fitted with
Victor engines, everything from Cessna 421s, 340s and Aztecs to
Bonanzas and Skylanes,
and they're unquestionably the smoothest
"
"Victor's overhauls, more than just
a pretty face. One thing
that
airplane owners covet is a shop
that gives expert and individual
attention of the airplane and engine. Add to that some custom
classy styling and the combination is
even better. The real strong
suit
of Victor's overhaul is it's smoothness."
AOPA, Richard
L. Collins
"Under the glitch, VA provides substance. Until recently,
engine overhauling has been straightforward, but all that's changing,
and Victor is one of
those doing the changing.
Victor Sloan puts
turbine
smoothness in a factory
piston engine."
Private Pilot, Nicholas

"Making engines breathe
easier."
"Victor Sloan loves engines, specifically high-performance
aircraft piston engines and he
is devoted to making them more
efficiently and reliably than they
were ever designed to operate."
