The story: The new avionics package works well. The inspections are not current because of an engine problem, and the current owners are unwilling to put more time and money into engine repairs.

The right engine was repair twice by National Flight Toledo within the last 100 flight hours. Once in Feb 2011 and a second time November 2013. It appears as if the power on the right engine is remains low after the second repair (8.1 flight hours since the second repair). National Flight, has verbally stated that the right engine repair is under warranty until Nov 2015, and that warranty is transferable to a third party.

The aircraft engines turn freely and remain within temperature limits during start and taxi. The left engine makes slightly better than rated takeoff power when evaluated using TAKEOFF POWER CHECK CHART, Figure 4-4 of the AFM. The right engine makes about 7% less than rated takeoff power when evaluated using the TAKEOFF POWER CHECK CHART. When in cruise flight with the indicted fuel flow matched, a 50c temperature split between engines is preset. The right engine has the higher indicated temperature.

The aircraft is located inside the main hanger a M08 Airport in Bolivar, TN. A power cart is available for engine start and avionics testing.
