This Tempest pump sucks big time, I’m in the clouds again.
New Tempest Tornado 3000 216Cw
Very nice work by both Aircraft Spruce and Tempest on the warranty consideration for the failed air pump previously reported on. Spoke with Spruce and received the RMA, shipped it next day. Received an email from Tempest Tech Support the same day, called them to discuss and BAM!, issue resolved with the failed pump and its replacement unit. Excellent work by both companies!
good quality, good product
New Tempest Tornado 3000 216Cw
Overall, pump looks to be of good quality, and I trust Tempest products. Installed this pump on our A36 53.3 hrs ago and it failed today shooting an approach. Removed it from the accessory pad and could see no outwardly noted reason for failure. Basis that, a higher star rating can be achieved pending a positive outcome of their inspection for warranty consideration.
