RAPCO type dry vac. pumps are an interesting issue, and, as I hope you know, it is the airframe manufacturer's time lives that count, not the vac. pump OEM. There are differences (that I have seen) of up to 50% difference in the OEM and the TC MM figures
The above statement once again is incorrect. A component may be run to its manufacture's recommendations out side of the airframe limits.
So lead you still not answered a quite simple question that ive been asking you.
Simple how many time have you released and signed an M/R. Our sign and released your own work at a service.
And by the way the regulator dose not set the times in chap 5 for life limited components its the manufacture so once again it has nothing to do with the regulator. If TCM wont and do give a longer service life to there engines it is excepted by the regulator. You also keep bringing in every other country well we are in Aust and it don't matter what they say.
And btw you are wrong about the insurance as well.
Cheers
