what about requirement to rebuild mags at 500 hours? Does team think this can be deferred? How advisable on mags that were brand new 500 hours ago? As was engine...........
Slicks need the 500 hr O/H or IRAN. Unfortunately, Slick parts are expensive. In U.S., it's almost as cheap to buy new ones as O/H old ones. Bendix mags are generally more expensive to buy, last longer, and cheaper to repair. Quite a few magneto specialty shops in U.S., but no idea of the shipping and other charges to over there.
