Bad wording on my part. I should have said 1000 hours past factory reccomended TBO. (actually it's more, at 2900 hours SMOH)
IIRC the O-300 is 1800 TBO.
But anyway, do you have any input as to the engine swap with one OHd in Canada?
AC-43-10C has no bearing on this subject.FAA AC 43-10C helps as well.
Well, I haven't pulled the trigger on the airplane yet, But if I do, I may OH it and put it on the shelf for future use.and ... what do you want for your 2900 hour core engine?
The data tag says it is a 0-300 by TCM. it does not matter who overhauled it. The installer declares airworthiness, they need no Canadian paper to do that.It's an overhaul product of Canada, we have a Bilateral Airworthiness Agreement with Canada. It better come with a Canadian cetrificate of airworthiness.
They are nice to have, and should be used but they are not required down here to declare airworthiness.Canadian M1 AME.
An engine should always have a logbook. Of course the logbook is only as good as the person who kept it up.
Fresh overhauls will typically have a Form 1 for certification as part of the logbook.
A used engine should have an up to date logbook and a Form 1 certifying its condition. ("Removed servicable from aircraft XXX with XX hours since new/overhaul. Last inspection completed at XXXX as per CAR 625 Appendix B & C.") The logbook should have a complete list of AD's.
If no AMO is involved, then most likely only an up to date logbook will be found.
