"Castrol Aviator is a Better Mousetrap."

		Ormond Beach Aviation “We have had a huge reduction in carbon related maintenance since we started using Castrol Aviator AD100 and have seen a dramatic improvement in regards to carbon fouling of spark plugs. As the chief engine mechanic we cover all maintenance issues from overhauls to 100- hour inspections. It is my belief that this product has reduced labor cost and created a safer environment for engines to run. Thank you.” - Shawn E. Cleveland, Chief Engine Mechanic Ormond Beach Aviation

	Unlimited Air Racing, Inc. “I first used the Castrol Aviator AD 120 at the Reno Air Races...We flew the aircraft a total of three flights at very high power settings without having to add any oil, and the leaks slowed down dramatically. The oil temperature got to 105°C and the oil showed no breakdown during analysis from this heat. We have since flown the aircraft for approximately 5 hours with an average consumption of 1.5 gph or less. I firmly believe that Castrol Aviator is a “Better Mousetrap.” - Mike Looney, Assistant Crew Chief Unlimited Air Racing, Inc.

		Southeast Aero Sales, Inc. “When it comes to selecting piston engine oil that will perform under the demanding loads of aerobatic flight, Southeast Aero chooses Castrol Aviator AD piston oils. At the extreme power and temperature demands imposed by high-performance aerobatic routines, we need the best engine oil available. Castrol Aviator AD series formulation provides optimum protection of critical engine components against rust and corrosion, as well as high load and thermal stability, contributing to sustained peak engine performance.” - Kramer Upchurch, Southeast Aero Sales, Inc.

	Executive Flyers Aviation “Our fleet has accumulated over 20,000 trouble-free flying hours on Castrol Aviator. With over 250 oil changes per year, the oil has proven flawless, with no corrosion, valve sticking, or sludge accumulation anywhere in our engines. With Castrol Aviator running in our engines, I have the confidence in knowing that our fleet is taking advantage of the latest in oil formulations. I would highly recommend the use of Castrol Aviator oils.” - Michael Goulian, Executive Flyers Aviation

	American Champion Aircraft "All of our new aircraft engines are filled with the Castrol Aviator S products. It has been our experience during the engine break-in process that oil consumption has been greatly reduced compared to our previous oil. After break in, we recommend using the Castrol Aviator AD series. The AD series oil has provided excellent engine performance and protection. We believe that this is due to Castrol Aviator's superior thermal stability and wear characteristics relative to other oils. We will continue to encourage our customers and others in the aviation community to use Castrol Aviator, because we believe in the superior performance and protection that Castrol Aviator offers." - Jerry Mehlhaff, President American Champion Aircraft

	Honeywell Aerospace "I have used various products in the past, but most typically Areoshell. I'm the type of person that gets comfortable with using certain products such as oil and am not easily swayed. You and your team however, with you friendliness and warm greetings had a big influence on me as well as Michael Goulian's acceptance of the product. I expect to be using the Castrol Aviator products from now on, and Castrol products in my cars, motorcycles, etc as well." - Rick Rohwer, CAE Honeywell Aerospace

	SkyBlueAir, Inc. "We want to use a piston engine oil that we can trust and that will provide the highest level of performance possible with our aircraft. This is why we use Castrol Aviator AD 100. Since we have begun using Castrol Aviator, we've encountered less extensive wear patterns in all of our engines. We trust using Castrol Aviator AD 100 more than any other oil brand because we have seen how well it holds up and know it will provide us as well as our customers with the best quality and efficiency."

	Executive Flyers Aviation "We have had the Castrol credit card program installed at Executive Flyers Aviation for a few months now and have realized that this is a great program for our flight school. Just as you said, we have saved more than 25% in credit card fees each month compared to our previous credit card processor. We were able to set up the program in just a few hours. The credit card machine is easy to use. All of the additional programs the Castrol program offers will be sure to increase our business overall. We are very pleased to be part of the Castrol Aviator team." - Karin Goulian, Marketing Manager Executive Flyers Aviation Hanscom Field, Bedford, MA

	Chambliss Aerobatics "While flying my airshow routines and competing in the Red Bull Air Races, I am relying 100% on my Lycoming engine. An engine failure during a show or race could spell disaster. When performing or racing, my concentration level is so high that I don't have a second to look at the engine gauges to make sure everything is "in the green". I need to have confidence that my engine is working perfectly under the harshest of conditions. After speaking with the folks at Castrol, they convinced me to try Castrol Aviator because it would give superior protection against the extreme heat that the engine endures in my tightly cowled Red Bull EDGE 540. They were right, we found that it delivers superior performance and protection and we have switched to Castrol Aviator. Castrol gives me the confidence I need to produce winning results."
