First annual
Started annual on Nov 1st and now 99% . My two great mech's have done well for me and found many hidden problems. All though two mech's had annualed the aircraft for the last 16 years and and certified all A.D.'s complyed with, we found the front prop was 10 years out of service and the front mag's also. Thanks to H.& S prop shop and a big thank you to Herb H. for his old front prop hub the prop is back on the aircraft . The mag's (bendix) were replaced with slick, which came with wire harnes and 16 autolite plugs. We then found the tack pickup threaded whole was a size too big. checked back with slick and found the slick mags were not STC. Had to send them back and get bendix. The next spark plug harnes was very costly. We are about finished and now working on one fuel gage, map lite, insturment lites ,and flap gage. One cylinder was bad on #4 front and found bad ex. valve that was sent to Brooklin Mich and they replaced th valve and guide piston pin and rings. That was not too costly other than labor.
