PT6C-67C engine reliability

Any ideas on the unscheduled events we can expect when operating a couple of AW139's on coastal work. I haven't seen anyone posting concerns about the engines reliability.

Thats because there is no major issues Tech2.
Our engineers do daily water rinse after last flight, followed by a drying run. Ops normal.....

Same, tons of low level hoisting over salt water, engines are washed afterwards. No issues.

Top engine.

only ball ache is changing the injectors and fuel fuel manifold every 600 hours (300 hours in the sandpit).
Just add oil.
