Nstarbf Posted November 17, 2020 Report Share Posted November 17, 2020 Once again it's time to start looking for a shop that will do a 100 hr Eddy current inspection. Moving to the B hub is still a bit out of reach as far as AMU's are concerned. Any recommendations in the West or Central Texas, Eastern New Mexico, Southern Kansas, Oklahoma area? The two most local places to me last time were quoting in the .5 AMU range... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jblanton Posted November 17, 2020 Report Share Posted November 17, 2020 Derik at Air Capital NDI in Wichita, KS is who I use. They will come to your airplane at a surrounding airport. Pop the spinner off, and just takes a few minutes. I need mine done, and can think of a couple others. Maybe we could get a group deal? Bart?

skydvrboy Posted November 17, 2020 Report Share Posted November 17, 2020 I don't know how far you want to fly, but I had mine done at Redline Aviation in Akron, CO. He quoted me $150 on the phone and then charged me $75 when it was all done. It's a bit farther than I would want to fly just for the inspection, but I was able to stop by on the way home from a funeral. I've also heard good things about Air Capital NDI.

Buckeyechuck Posted November 18, 2020 Report Share Posted November 18, 2020 I had the luxury of working for years with a guy who did NDT work in industrial facilities. All I knew up to then was he did tanks and boilers. When the hub AD came out, I was surprised to find out he was FAA certified and did all of the Net Jets fleet out of Columbus KCMH, along with a lot of other FAA work. He works now for a company named Veracity, LLC. They are heavy into aviation work. You may have someone like this in your area. With all the petrochemical in your area, some one has the right certifification to do the hub AD. Veracity had a 3 hr minimum at $100/hr. If you have others that cost could be split.

Terraplane Posted November 18, 2020 Report Share Posted November 18, 2020 I just had mine done at Lone Star Propeller at KMAF, $191 and they greased the hub while they were at it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobertGary1 Posted November 21, 2020 Report Share Posted November 21, 2020 I do mine at a ndt place that has an FAA certificate for testing. But that means they can’t legally remove the spinner so either you need an A&P to do that or the magic fiery does it before they show up.
