    Goods news. It fired right up. Purrs like always. Things I learnt. Rotech is top notch. They let me work along side as it was being done. The special tools that were needed prevents others from being able to do it. The tolerance of the fit is mind boggling. Amazing it would even start with how the old sprag clutch looked. Regular starter spun at 210 rpm, new HD starter spins at 340 rpm...big increase. The soft start flywheel and module really are amazing. Seen it on the test stand with a strobe light really shows how it works. Yes the parts are expensive but Rotech gave me a discount
    Just happy to be up and flying again once this spring storm blows over. Any other questions I'd be happy to answer

    Very good news. Sorry your checkbook took a hit but sounds worth the expense.

    Hi Mic
    Glad to hear things are working out. One thing about this "flying habit" that is common to the oilfield and possibly farming is that you just have to keep throwing money at it until it works. You engine, Me avionics.
    Maybe if we have a good streak of weather this summer I will get out your way again. Safe trip home.
    Cheers
    Don
