Skywheels Founder Jim McCutchen

Season 2 · Episode 3

Friday, December 4, 2020 • Duration 18:00

(December 7, 2020) Jim McCutchen began manufacturing McCutchen Skywheels rotor blades in 1985. Following a successful run until 2001, his company manufactured 6,000 rotor blades. To put that into perspective, if you placed the rotor blades end-to-end, they would stretch 17-miles long. That's a lot of rotor blades. During his time of ownership, Jim did considerable research and testing. Our podcast begins with an update from Skywheels President Joe Covelli. Joe details his goal in bringing Skywheels back on the market and manufactured again to match the original McCutchen Skywheels rotor blades for their safety and performance characteristics. The goal was met in the summer and fall of 2020 during test flights by two pilots who confirmed the new rotor blade sets had the same flight performance characteristics as the originals.
