Evening!
We are looking at putting a small group together and one or two of the aircraft we have saw have an engine on condition including one which has flown 1150 hours since the last overhaul which was 25 years ago.
My question is, if the engine is in good condition and compressions are good then how much emphasis would you place on that or would you be minded to say it will need overhauled almost right away.
I imagine an engine that hasn’t been overhauled in 25 years will have a price that reflects that.
The aircraft would be on a private syndicate group that would accept an on condition engine but we have no experience of this.
Any help would be most welcome.
Thank you.
