Well, when you fly your airplanes enough eventually, something is goign to come due for an overhaul. It?s probably time to do the engine on our RV-6, and since it is currently hanging from a hoist because we?re doing an engine mount repair, I am thinking of overhauling it before it goes back on. I?ve got plenty of engine building experience, but always from a ?box-O-parts?, ready to assemble - so this time, I have to find a shop to do all of the inspections.
So that looks, to me, like I am going to be shipping stuff to Tulsa - for some reason, the nexus of engine machine shops. I don?t have any direct experience with any of them, so thought I?d see if anyone here Has worked with Aircraft Specialties Services, or has any others to recommend because of great service, quick response time, and/or good prices. I am assuming the case will have to go to Divco, so any recent experience with them you?d like to relate would also be appreciated.
I?ve got four brand new cylinder assemblies in sealed boxes just sitting here already, so top end of stuff is already covered.
