this has got to be it. Both props off for overhaul, it's time, now I am
looking at two new props with deice boots, 15k times two. can get some
new blades and use the old hubs but I am thinking it's best just to be
rid of them. I thought this annual would hurt when I got three new gear
actuators rather than overhauled. Last year it was a new, rather than
repaired, engine mount.

What a hobby!


The annual two years ago came up to 1/3 the purchase price of the
plane because I chose to make a bunch of recurring AD's go away...
This annual will include a new set of teflon hoses for the right
engine...
Next year will be new hydraulic hoses and some gear bushings...
The year after that we will begin looking for new engines which will
exceed the value of the airplane...
Fun, eh wot!


Ah, you big high rollers. I'm coming up on a major or more likely
replacement do to core hours and I can probably hit the cost of the
airplane with one engine and a fuel cell or two. Which BTW it needs
new tip tankssigh
