My 'coupe, NC2273H, is back in the air!
Six long months of me tinkering on it (total engine teardown and
re-install
myself -- professional overhaul shop did the rebuild though). I'm sure
lucky my mechanics and IA were good enough to let me do it myself, with
their regular inspections and occasional supervision on critical parts.
I flew it for about 1.5 hours tonight.
I'll post up a video later this week on my personal website
(www.ellingson.com).
Thanks everyone for answering my technical questions during this process.
As for the SB32 inspection, I will be doing it this summer when I put in
the
large baggage compartment.
One note: My new SkyTec starter is very nice. Certainly smaller and
lighter. It does turn the engine over a bit faster, but doesn't seem to
have as much torque. Then again, the new rings and such may have
increased
the load and resistance.
