Cheers LS – I wondered about the 'down-time', is it a 'quick' fix?, how long for say a Chieftain or Be 200? Meanwhile, who will service the clients, pay the lease and idle pilots. I was also curious about sourcing parts and qualified engineers and the re-rigging and the test flying. It's going to be quite a bill, one way or t'uther, I imagine.
There's also the cost of 'mutilation' to consider; is there an official definition or standard for that; I mean how is one to know, for certain sure, that one has sufficiently mutilated a control cable. Aye, it's a puzzle.
