Would put his reputation among the two or three best in North America to makes sure that a Mooney gets diagnosed and treated correctly. 1 Quote

ArtVandelay Posted April 14, 2018 Report Posted April 14, 2018 since the prop needs repair or replacement due to impact,,, would this trigger a prop strike engine tear down/inspection requirement? not sure how the requirements are worded,,, but i think this meets them! I thought it had to be an abrupt stoppage or the prop had to strike the ground? OP didn’t even realize it. Quote
Guest Posted April 14, 2018 Report Posted April 14, 2018 To re-cap this situation, as posted previously: Any damage to propeller blade which can’t be field dressed meets the definition of a “propeller strike” per AD 2004-10-14, which in turns drives one to comply with Lycoming SB 475C, which covers the crankshaft gear retaining bolt and its lock plate. The engine has been inspected and has no faults and is completely re-assembled. We are awaiting a propeller resolution. The insurance is covering the job, other than any upgrade to the propeller should the owner choose to upgrade. Clarence Quote
