Hi Squawk,
I'm not familiar with 210's but am familiar with mag survey and had a quick chat with a LAME that serviced survey 210's and he was a bit alarmed a where it failed,
not the usual place that developed cracks?

A sobering read from a CASA AWB I received today - a small corrosion pit and rapid crack growth - just what no-one wants to see.

But if they do not it is a very big item,with the usual extra things it will be very close to a $200K job to replace - from what I hear.
That said it is great to see owners and operators doing this SL voluntarily.

Labour estimate:
1. Remove and replace wings
2. Dismantling and replacement of the affected roof and centre section(s)
Even if that took 200 hours, total labour is about $27,000. Would parts for this really be costed out at $173,000?
Anyone else care to chime in with some numbers?

Price a replacement carry through structure and you will have your answer. If you can get one.
The inspection and preparation itself only took about 2-3 days for our 210.

Seems awfully high - What 'facts' give you that number, or is it some bloke at a hotel bar talking bull

But take out a few bucks to build a fuse jig, if you do not have one.
