Buying prop strike engine
"Roger" wrote in message ... On 8 Aug 2006 18:04:34 -0700, "joe" wrote: no there is an AD note 2004 -10-14 i think that requires it A few years back lycoming redefined what is a prop strike..... A manufactururer SB does not make anything mandatory for a part 91 operator. An AD note does....... Even if it were only and SB which is not "officially" mandatory, let's say you have a prop strike. Every thing looks good, you replace or straighten the prop and the thing runs well. Even the run out looks good. About 50 or 100 hours later the crank lets go and you shred the thing in an off field landing although no one gets hurt. What does your insurance company say if they find out you have not complied with that particular SB? Will they pay and say nothing? Will they pay and complain? Will they raise your rates? Will they let your renew at renewal time? Who knows? They will pay. Happened to a Cherokee around here and no questions were asked.

If its a lycoming you need to tear it down regardless..... AD NOTE joe It's only a service bulletin, not an AD. Both Continental and Lycoming consider a teardown mandatory after a prop strike.
