    Six Decades of Aviation Engineering with Jimmy Tubbs

    In this episode of Aviation Masters, Mike Busch sits down with legendary aeronautical engineer Jimmy Tubbs for a deep, wide-ranging conversation that spans more than six decades of aviation experience. From military engineering and piston engine innovation to PMA certification battles and the future of autonomous flight, this episode is a masterclass in how general aviation has evolved and where it may be headed next. Jimmy shares the untold engineering stories behind cylinder design, chrome vs. nickel processes, engine certification challenges, and the hard lessons learned while building some of the most influential piston engine components in modern aviation. This is a candid, technical, and deeply human conversation with one of the quiet architects of how we fly today. ⏱ Chapters  03:00 – From Small-Town Texas to Aeronautical Engineering 07:00 – Military Aviation, Engineering Labs & Learning to Fly 12:00 – Inside ECI: Cylinder Reconditioning & Early PMA Work 17:00 – Channel Chrome vs. Nickel Cylinders: What Really Matters 27:00 – Building New Cylinders & The Birth of Titan Engines 36:00 – TBO, On-Condition Maintenance & FAA Certification Reality 42:00 – The Titan Cylinder AD: What Actually Happened 53:00 – Engine Monitoring, CHT Management & Pilot Responsibility 01:05:00 – Life After ECI: PMA Consulting & Supply Chain Challenges 01:19:00 – Diesel Engines, Automation & The Future of General Aviation 01:30:00 – Final Reflections on Innovation, Aging Aircraft & Passion for Aviation 📍 Subscribe to Aviation Masters for more long-form conversations with the people shaping the future of GA.

    George Braly on Lean-of-Peak, G100UL, Certification Battles, and Why Aviation Myths Die Hard

    If you have ever been told, “That’s just how piston engines work,” this episode of Aviation Masters might make you raise an eyebrow and then start asking more questions. In this episode, host Mike Busch sits down with George Braly, one of the most influential (and unapologetically analytical) minds in modern general aviation.  Braly is an inventor, trial lawyer, entrepreneur, and the co-founder and chief engineer of General Aviation Modifications, Inc. (GAMI)—the company behind GAMjectors, Tornado Alley Turbo systems, and the FAA-approved high-octane unleaded avgas G100UL. This is not a surface-level conversation. It is a deep, technical, and refreshingly honest look at how innovation actually happens in aviation and why it is often resisted at every step of the way. ⏱️ Chapters 01:17 — Meet George Braly 02:53 — Early Aviation Roots in Oklahoma 04:51 — Learning IFR the Hard Way 07:09 — From Aerospace Engineering to Law School 08:59 — Buying a Bonanza and Returning to Engineering 10:43 — Founding GAMI and Balanced Fuel Injectors 12:29 — Calling the FAA Certification Bluff 15:24 — Lean-of-Peak: Where Angels Fear to Tread 17:10 — Fuel/Air Balance and Engine Monitor Insights 19:01 — Validation from a Continental Engineering Legend 22:05 — Building the Aircraft Engine Test Cell 25:04 — Teaching Thousands of Pilots How Engines Work 28:47 — Manufacturer Pushback on Lean Operations 30:23 — Airline History Confirms Lean Mixture Operations 35:11 — Tornado Alley Turbo and System Improvements 38:08 — Flying a Turbo Cirrus SR22 at Altitude 42:57 — Cirrus Adopts the Tornado Alley System 46:02 — FAA Rule Changes and Engineering Workarounds 49:19 — The Long Fight for Unleaded Avgas (G100UL) 53:16 — Political Resistance Inside Certification 58:15 — Restarting the Fuel Certification Effort 01:02:31 — Detonation Testing at the Edge of Failure 📍 Subscribe to Aviation Masters for more long-form conversations with the people shaping the future of GA.
