Either way your desire to return this aircraft to flightworthy is admirable, the cost will be considerable, and for that you must be prepared.

Give Don a call at Commodore Aerospace.

Hello Dave

I will buy boroscope and a inspectors light to check all the accessible areas under the flooring. I am trying to connect with Don but I think he is away now days.

Thanks for the encouragement, this is what I need the most as moral support for this project. I am thinking about buying a flyable donor aircraft with annual and low time engInes on it, but I still want to go as far as possible to make original AVM flyable again.

Once I've followed your recommendation, I will update you on here. Thanks Dave...
