Summer Bug Season

5/30/2012

 
Picture
_
With warming weather, insects come out of hibernation and start looking for food. In their search, they take flight. Sometimes, that flight path collides with that of aircrafts. By simple physics (i.e. difference in mass between the airplane and the bug), we know this is an uneventful incident for us but not the bug. After we land is when we notice this event has happened many times.

Regardless, it is our favorite time of year out there. Summer is a great time to get out and enjoy flying. Unfortunately, with this beauty comes a few nuances that must be dealt with -- bugs. We may not see them, but they are present every time we fly. They especially become visible after a flight on the leading edge and nose of airplanes. Fortunately for you, you have SmartWash, your airplane detailing specialists!

A word of advice. Bugs are easier to remove in the first few hours they are fresh on the aircraft. After that, it gets harder to remove. We highly recommend a quick trip wash to help your aircraft always looking clean, elegant, and ready to get some more bugs! Enjoy Summer 2012.

To Our Esteemed Customers,

Because we understand the importance of gratitude, we would like to thank you, our customers, for your loyalty and opportunity for service in the previous few months. In the same spirit, we would like to share with you that this would not be possible without the hard work of the employees of SmartWash. It is our intent to let our employees have a good, awaited break with their families before the season kicks into high gear this Spring/Summer of 2012. Therefore, we would like to inform you that SmartWash will temporarily close operations from March 13 at 2:00pm until April 4 at 6:00am. We hope to accommodate your needs before such time. If not, we will gladly, and with renewed energy, set up appointments after the aforementioned time.

During this break time, telephone access will be cut off since I will be overseas; access to email will be limited. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact us.

Warm regards,
Javier Chicas


The Job is Never Done

2/1/2012

 
As we strive for perfection, leaving a plane spotless requires much time and patience. We have made it a point to value our efforts in order to obtain the desired results. In recent accounts, we spent up to 12 hours on a simple wash and wax of a Dessault Falcon 2000ex. (Our customer was very satisfied.) The goal is not to rush through a job but to do it, and do it right! We know when you see your plane, you will be thrilled. As you fly and come back, we will be ready for the next go around. Like the title suggests, our job is never done. Thanks to our loyal customers.

Over the years, SmartWash has developed experience and expertise in every procedure and job we execute. With it has comes the ability to be eco-friendly in our methods. We are proud to report that most of our detailing procedures require a minimal consumption of water. Ninety percent of our modus operandi requires no water. The benefits are:
  • Reduced consumption of water.
  • No pollution of the environment by preventing chemicals from going down the sewer drain.
Other than the environmental concerns, we have achieved the ability to work in any space without having to move your aircraft. (It avoids the cost FBOs might charge for shuffling airplanes around.) Your hangar will just jus fine for us with no mess left behind. These methods help keep costs down, which we pass the rewards on to our customers.

Whether you realize it or not, there is a method to our madness that results in the superior quality of our work. Don’t just take our word for it, schedule your appointment soon.

This year, New Orleans is proud to be the host of the Airborne Law Enforcement Association (ALEA). It is ALEA's 41st Annual Conference & Exposition which will take place in the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center from July 20  through July 23, 2011. Activities range from exhibitions, classes, and various networking opportunities.

Now, you may ask yourself, what is SmartWash's role in this conference? We are the behind the scenes experts who have been contacted by several attendees to service their helicopters. It is an honor to help law enforcements' finest to look their best for this week's conference. Some of our acclaimed customers include the LAPD, Virginia State Police, and others.

So, if you are coming to an ALEA class,  are attending the exhibition events, or simply happen to see a helicopter flying this week, keep us in the back of your heads. We played a very small role to make the event occur "cleanly." It has been a pleasure and an honor to play a small, but important roll in this event. We look forward to making other events like this happen in the Louisiana area.

Wasting Away in Jazz Fest

5/10/2011

 
"Wastin away again in margaritaville
Searching for my lost shaker of salt
Some people claim that there's a woman to blame
But I know it's nobodys fault"

Check out the picture and try to guess who...
