Power Flow Systems Pilot Empowerer - LEES Edition
Alive and Kickin'...
As you might expect for a General Aviation company that has been in business for over two decades, Power Flow has seen its share of market cycles, business ups & downs, and (being located on Florida’s Atlantic Coast in Daytona Beach), even a few natural disasters – in the form of the hurricanes which pummel that coast periodically.

Along with the rest of the country, though, we have never had to deal with anything remotely like the chaos that has accompanied our nation’s newest public enemy #1.

In spite of everything that we’ve had to deal with to date, though, I’m proud to say that we're still alive & kicking! The entire Power Flow Team has responded admirably – working from home where possible, and strictly observing the stringent COVID related safety protocols when necessary.

We also continue to make steady (though somewhat slower) progress in our continuing effort to return the Leading Edge Exhaust System products to production:  

We have all of the machinery that we shipped down from Anchorage installed & running; our production team is making trial runs of the individual components using the LEES tooling & fixtures for the C182; and, of crucial importance, we recently received the FAA’s approval for the transfer of the STC’s previously held by LEES to Power Flow.
Florida has deemed aviation related businesses (such as Power Flow) as "essential", so, to date, we have avoided any COVID induced shutdowns. Of course, we have no way of knowing how long that is likely to remain the case.

As is to be expected, we are experiencing higher than normal employee absences & turnover as well as sporadic disruptions in our supply of raw materials, and sub-components. Fortunately, though, we’ve had no "show stoppers" yet.

Given the unpredictability of the COVID crisis, as well as its impact on our supply chain, we are a little hesitant to make any solid predictions or promises at this point. Our best "guesstimate" is that we should be able to begin deliveries of the LEES products in July or August of this year.

For those of you who placed your orders before December 31 – Congratulations! Your special Pre-Production pricing is “locked-in”. Current pricing for each of the LEES products is outlined below:

$6,650.00 for the O-470, I/O-520, or I/O-550 powered C-180, -182, & -185 airframes;

$2,950.00 for the C-205 through 210 airframes;
&
$4,550.00 to $5,050.00 (depending on configuration) for the O-320 & O-360 powered PA-12, -18, & -20/22 airframes.

These prices are valid for all orders placed by August 31, 2020. Starting September 1, 2020, the prices shown above will increase by $200.00 - $300.00 across the board. 

An initial deposit of $750.00 will confirm an order at the discounted price and reserve a place in the production queue on a first-come / first served basis. Once we have the new production line “up & running” we will assign a firm ship date for each order on-hand. We will also ask for an additional deposit of $750.00 at that time.

The remaining balance will be due one day before each new system is shipped, with shipments beginning sometime during the third quarter of 2020 for the Cessna systems and the fourth quarter of 2020, or the first quarter of 2021 for the Piper systems.

Just a Word To The Wise: We are now up to 49 confirmed orders for the new LEES products, so if you’d like to get a new high performance exhaust “In the Works” for your ship, you may want to do it sooner, rather than later.

Just give us a call or click here to place your order securely online.

We will keep you posted on our progress, and we look forward to ALL of us getting back to “normal” as soon as possible.

In the meantime:

Stay Safe / Stay Healthy / & -

All the Best!
