So far the bigger well known shops are all around 25k and I have a quote from a couple of "smaller" shops for 13.5k

Can you tell me more about this? Can someone that is not an A&P/IA do an overhaul? What exactly is a "certified mechanic" Thanks!

I am interested in a field overhaul of a Lycoming O-360. I'm not interested in having a big name shop overhaul, as they're always somewhere around 30k, too much. From what I can tell, a field overhaul engine vs one done at a fancy shop seem to last almost just as long. So, with that in mind...

Asking for a friend, how does one remove the wet compass in an Archer? There is no screw in the back of the housing to release the compass.

OP, I hate to bring up this old thread but I'm experiencing the exact issue you've described. My fuel caps are loose and water gets in as a result. I replaced the gasket, but the same it's just as loose. Did you find the part with wear or did you just replace the entire cap? Thanks.

E-mailed you.

@GeorgeC @kayoh190 Do you have or know of someone with a partnership near NYC?

Do you know of anything available at FRG? It seems next to impossible to find a decent partnership around here.

Hi Looking for anyone that has a share of an existing partnership near an NYC airport. Particually interested in KFRG or KMMU. Thanks.
