Tunc prop stike rnts you all said what I've been saying execs that Toyota charge around $140 an hour as we'll and if you go to places like port Hedland now it's over $200.
The biggest thing with Cessna was they didn't corrosion proof as it was an option at extra cost. Piper and beech did. How ever at some point they too will bring some sort of SIDS out I'm sure.
Anyone remember the Mobil fuel ad. Where you really could not inspect all these areas particularly 300 and 400 Cessnas. Then we had to remove entire fuel systems the stuff I found was a real eye opener places that on a normal service you could not justify removing components to have a look now Mobil paying and we had to. It was scary to say the least.
Now we back there with SIDS but now the owner has to pay and a $100 an hour to run a work shop pay staff insurance power water dosnt leave a lot. Now mining here and lame are leaving the industry so fast to get paid great money and no basic responsabity who wouldn't
