I just have to highlight the brilliant service from this outfit.
The aircraft developed a slight, but distinct misfire, not the ideal soundtrack for the Channel / Thames Estuary flight back home.
My very able interpreter explained the issue to Christophe, the top man, and he looked very non-committal. "Not today, tomorrow peut-être"
In fact "demain" became a reality
If you know Van's cowling fitment you will appreciate how sceptical I was that they would ever manage to put the aeroplane back together again. But they did, perfectly.
The blown manifold gasket was replaced, the aircraft flew back faultlessly, the bill was just a gnat's over two hundred quid, which I didn't feel was unreasonable.
We have an outstanding job that is beyond our capability. We are seriously wondering if a short break in Le Touquet is an option whilst they work on it.
The Technicians ^^^^^^^
