I'm an engine break-in away from my first inspection in 18 years. It's been a long revival process. Now I'm having difficulty in finding an A&P to do the inspection. I have a couple friends that wrenched for UAL, but they left town when United declared bankruptcy and closed the base in Indy.
And what is the going rate for a condition inspection?
Thanks,
Jay
I hope this will work for you.

Bud ross over here in terre haute at Skyking airport builds planes. He's the manager at the airport and a&p. I'm sure you could pull the wings and tow it. For my thorp is was 715$. They are 65$ an hour labor rate. The hangar wasn't full so you could get in asap.
I'm not sure he would be able to drive over. I could mention something to the other ap at the field and see if he might want to pick up some side work.
Thanks Paul!Quote:

That would be awesome. I had hoped my dad would be able to fly out from California, but now my mom's health is so bad he can't leave for any amount of time.Quote:
