    More than 80 Airframe and Powerplant mechanics attended a nine-hour Inspection Authorization Renewal seminar held Saturday at Penn College's Lumley Aviation Center in Montoursville.

Presenters included Scott Starick, of Aero Mech inc., who discussed Reduced Vertical Separation Minimums certification and maintenance; Thomas D. Inman, associate professor of aviation at Penn College, human-error reduction by development of a "safety net" based on personality type; Mike Caldera, of Lycoming Engines, Lycoming engine maintenance; and Penn College aviation instructor William P.
