Concorde Battery’s Skip Koss Discusses System Safety
As a battery and electrical systems expert, Skip Koss has seen it all when it comes to the power that keeps today’s aircraft in the sky. Recently, however, Koss has grown concerned over the increase in aircraft that apparently consume power even when all systems appear to be off. These “parasitic loads” can be considerable, draining the battery to the extent of even permanent damage. Koss joins Aero-TV in the second of his safety tips to explain how general aviation pilots can address this potentially dangerous problem.
