    UPS Lost my Engine!

    Update #4 (queue Benny Hill Theme) They Found the engine Again!! Apparently, a big Blue box without labels and smelling of 100LL has been located in the Pheonix 'Lost Items Warehouse'. The running theory is that after my initial denied claim, the engine shop sent a quote for replacement...

    Thanks Geroge! Looks like that story ended well (UPS Found the engine). But it was filled with horror stories about UPS denying claims. I hope our is found, but need to prepare to go after UPS if it's not.

    UPS Lost my Engine!

    You all are going to love this one. Working with our A&P to send our engine to the builder (Not TBO, but a precautionary IRAN.) Empty crate was shipped, A&P remove the engine, packed it in the create, and shipped it back. All logistics handled by the builder. Now, UPS is showing the 700 lb...
