One who misses Daytona!
I need a few tips, suggests tigons, warnings if you will.
An acquaintance of mine has a Tiger, he has a possible brain issue that keeps him from flying. In fact the hours flown between annuals was 6 hours. SAD
He is considering allowing me to fly it to keep it and fly it for him.
Here is the issue as I know it.
The frame has 2000 hours and the engine has 1750.
IA says compression is 70+ on all cylinders, no oil leaks found.
The caster wheel has had to be rebuilt in this annual.
It is not IFR current, I think that would be on me to get certified.
The owner will provide tie down fees and most major work.
My real question/concern is the engine.
What is everyone's opinion?
Thanks.
