Flight school use actually is quite good for exceeding TBO

That's my understanding, but a student of mine, an A&P, insists that
every flight school that he's worked has overhauled engines at TBO,
and he's had others confirm that with their flight operations.

I can't imagine that any flight operation would incur the added
expense if this were clearly unnecessary.


The flight school I worked at does not automatically overhaul at TBO.
As long as the oil analyses and the compression checks are good, they
keep on flying them.
