Re: Engine Overhaul Air 1
Sir,
At your request I offer the following information concerning the engine overhaul in Air 1 (N632SD)
As of this writing there are approximately 120 flight hours remaining on Air 1 before the mandated
engine overhaul is due.
In previous communications I indicated that the cost, start to finish, will be somewhere in the 175K to
325K range. This is based on an industry standard and a first run (first overhaul) evolution. Realizing
this is a large range, the more accurate estimate in all probability, will be somewhere in the 300K range
+/- 25K-30K.
This maintenance evolution is similar to the 12 year inspects whereby we won't know until the engine is
taken apart and various items are checked. Bearings and turbine wheels have to meet certain criteria and
there is no way to know what, if anything, needs to be repaired, replaced etc. There are other
considerations that are mandated by the FAA; some parts have to be replaced regardless of what shape
they are in.
Bijan Aviation will remove the engine and ship it to Turbo-Meca Inc. Once the necessary maintenance is
performed and any repairs made the engine will be shipped back to Bijan and reinstalled. The County
will then be billed by Bijan in its entirety, subject to Bijan's billing practice(s).
1201 N TELEGRAPH RD PONTIAC MI 48341-1044 • 248/858-5008
It is anticipated that this event will take between 45 and 60 days to complete. This estimate is also influx
as we will simply be placed in line with all the other engines at Turbo-Meca.
I would plan for the worse of 325K+ and hope for the best.
Respectfully submitted
/s/
Deputy William Christensen
