Duncan Aviation’s Wellness Program Viewed as One of the Best


8-wellness

Duncan Aviation was selected as one of nine companies to receive a visit from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in 2007. The CDC is conducting site visits to learn about innovative and successful programs that assist employees to attain or maintain a healthy weight. After conducting its visits, it will share information obtained from the workplaces with other companies.

Well-known for its infectious disease investigations, the CDC also conducts research and evaluates programs that focus on the prevention of chronic diseases by reducing risk factors and promoting healthy lifestyles.

Duncan Aviation’s focus on wellness includes a full-time wellness staff, on-site workout rooms at its Lincoln and Battle Creek facilities, fitness classes, monthly and quarterly educational programs, confidential annual health screenings, nutrition analysis, mental health services, and more. The workout facilities and locker rooms are available for on-site customers as well as employees.

Duncan Aviation Announces New Accessory Warranty Policy


8-accessory

Duncan Aviation is pleased to announce a change in the accessory warranty policies for both repairs and overhauls of accessory units.

The warranty period for Duncan Aviation accessory repairs is now six months for business aircraft and 90 days or 500 hours, whichever comes first, for airline use from the date the repair was completed. This warranty covers only the parts and labor used in the previous repair. The warranty period for overhauls is one year for business aircraft and six months or 750 hours, whichever comes first, for airline use from the date the overhaul was completed. The overhaul warranty covers all parts and labor performed during the overhaul.

Repair estimates often require a “partial repair” of a unit. In these cases, Duncan Aviation may invest parts and labor to arrive at a meaningful estimate. If the repair estimate is refused, the unit will incur an evaluation charge for time and materials.

If you have accessory warranty-related questions, please contact Bryan Hermsen at 800.LOANERS (562.6377) ext. 4216 or call him direct at 402.479.4216.
