I believe that this is coming from the fact that facilities are now being found liable in court cases once they sign off an engine that has been past the recommended TBO. As maintenance professionals, we all want to keep the aircraft that we maintain as safe as possible and as economical as possible, but no one really wants to assume unrealistic liabilities in doing so.

I think in the future you may begin to see maintenance personnel and facilities just not wanting to work on aircraft that have engines exceeding TBO. Ironically, in my entire turbine customer base, I do not have a single customer that has requested an exceedance of a TBO.

In conclusion, I originally asked Tom for documentation that would counter my assessments of the FARs and it has been provided. I therefore very respectfully thank Tom and you others who have done so. I stand corrected. Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment.

This can lead to an inadvertent overlook of an inspection item or maintenance requirement. If you are considering putting an engine on the MORE program, it is beneficial to put both engines on it to avoid any potential problems. We run into problems sometimes here at our shop.

For example, an FBO may pull a set of nozzles off an aircraft and send them in to us. They just send them in for a maintenance manual flow check. But they don't tell us their engine is under the MORE program. Under the MORE program, the nozzles are required to be overhauled at set intervals. They are tracked. So we can send them a set of nozzles back that would be airworthy on another PT6 engine, but can't be installed on their MORE engine.

Mechanics need to be aware of these things when sending components out to be inspected. For more information, you can contact MORE. Boeingstore Guest. AeroPaco dijo:. Al seleccionar las aeronaves que me ha tocado traer y operar, siempre se ha buscado que sean con motores PT6aa, por el beneficio que tiene un TBO mas alto.

Ninguno de los clientes ha solicitado que los motores esten inscritos en el programa MORE. Interxtra Aviacion Member. De antemano, gracias.
