bulk strip

TCM engine are mandated to require a bulk strip for a propstrike. The have a SB for propstrikes on their web site.

Their definition is anything that requires the prop to be removed for repair (even if the engine was not running at the time), or a sudden stopage of the engine requires the 'bulk strip' of the engine.

Costs, approx 1 to 2K for engine removal and installation for a simple engine, double for complex.

3 to 5K for engine teardown and cleaning, and rebuild.

1k for inspection and checking

1.5K for bearings and replacement parts

The last one I was involved in was 8.5K without the cost of the prop.
