  • Very Good Podcast!

    Great interview with George Braly.

    One of the most fascinating articles I’ve read (besides the one you published in AVweb in 1999 about why we had nothing to worry about with Y2K) was a piece you wrote in 2012 called “Separation Anxiety”. I hope you discuss this with Jimmy Tubbs in the 2/2026 podcast. After reading that article, I always thought that the adverse effects of a bad break-in, were potentially a lot more serious than simply higher oil consumption.

    Again, a great podcast Mike. Keep up... more

  • Great interview

    I had lunch with George Braly and Tim Roehl 20+ years ago when I took my plane into ADA for GAMIjectors. I learned so much in that hour. The main thing I learned was that they were smart cookies. The LOP information and background information was excellent as well. He obviously has not missed a beat. I can’t wait for the next one with him.

  • Thanks for this Incredible Insight!

    Dad was heavily involved and invested in both general/business aviation and sport flying and antique/classics. Listening to Mike Busch and his guests takes me back to listening to Dad & friends discussing the aviation industry challenges and successes they experienced. Please have George Braly back - for the rest of the stories!

George Braly on Lean-of-Peak, G100UL, Certification Battles, and Why Aviation Myths Die Hard
Q: How did your early experiences shape your approach to certification and testing?
Early hands-on work, including instrumented engine testing and learning from MIT texts, taught me that real-world data and understanding of engine behavior beat textbook assumptions; this fueled our meticulous, data-driven approach to fuel injection and lean-burn strategies.
