Looks like the engine mounts on both sides of my AC 520 are broken. I had six inches of up and down play at the spinner on the left side, scary! My A&P states that the mounts on the 520 are different from those on the 560 which are one piece. Can anyone give me any help/information on this subject? Where can I go to get the new style mounts? Will they fit on the AC520? Any idea on cost? Has this been a problem on the 520?

Welcome to old airplane ownership James :-) Engine mount damage isn't that uncommon. These birds are getting pretty old and the cumulative fatigue and vibration added to the age-hardening and corrosion of the materials are sure showing up. The 520 mount is a fairly simple built-up structure and is probably a bit more succeptable to cracks than the later designs. (just be glad you don't have a corroded Shrike mount though - a replacement probably costs more than your airplane!) You have three basic options: buy new, find something better in a junkyard, or repair. The mounts were pretty bad on my 520 when I first acquired it. At that time, TCAC could produce new mounts (bless 'em), but they were pretty expensive and had a long lead time. The good news is that the 520 mounts are pretty simple and are fabricated mostly from just stock material. We just drilled them apart and used the old pieces as templates to fabricate replacement parts, then reassembled. The repair shouldn't be beyond the capabilities of any good shop, but I'd suggest that you might want to be sure your A&P knows a bit about fabrication techniques and materials first.

In addition to dinner, "the keeper" put us onto a back country guide who knew where the fish were. In attendance last weekend at MTH were our 500A, the Big Yellow Nav Beacon(560), 120EK(690), and 28TC(690). That was in ascending order of performance. It could have been a fly in. bilbo ----- Original Message ----- From: "N414C" Subject: Re: Commander-List: Re: I heard, and then saw a Commander > --> Commander-List message posted by: "N414C" > > Bow describes a recent trip to Marathon but didn"t mention seeing the big > yellow nav beacon? > Milt > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "John D Williams" > To: > Subject: Re: Commander-List: Re: I heard, and then saw a Commander > > > > --> Commander-List message posted by: "John D Williams" > > > > > Milt > > sounds good--keep an eye on your incoming mail > > john > > ----- Original Message ----- > > From: "N414C" > > To: > > Subject: Re: Commander-List: Re: I heard, and then saw a Commander > > > > > > > --> Commander-List message posted by: "N414C" > > > > > > Got a virus check on all e mail in and out but did a sweep anyway.

Here's an interesting bit of trivia which might be useful to some of you 520 owners. There are basicly two types of GO-480 cases - rear mount accessories and side mount. (if memory serves, both the 560 and 560A have side-mount accessories, but I could be mistaken on the 560). Anyway, the basic rear-accessory case is virtually identical to the GO-435 case except for some additional webbing between the halves right above the oil pan. (The pan is the bottom structure on the 435.) You can build up a 435 using a 480 case. Both cases have the same engine mount attach points as well. A 480 gearbox also will go right on a 435 an is superior due to the larger and stronger gearset. chris schuermann ________________________________ Message 13 ____________________________________ Time: 01:05:35 PM PST US From: "Bill Bow" Subject: Re: Commander-List: Re: Engine Mounts --> Commander-List message posted by: "Bill Bow" So the mounts are the same? bilbo ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris Schuermann" Subject: Re: Commander-List: Re: Engine Mounts > --> Commander-List message posted by: Chris Schuermann > > > Frits Abbing wrote: > > No it isn't the same. a 520 engine mount fits an 435 > > and a 560 has a mount for an lyc480. > > Here's an interesting bit of trivia which might be useful to some of you > 520 owners.

No. Although the two _engines_ can be mounted the same way, the 520 and 560 aircraft use different mounts. Sadly, they're not directly interchangable as Commander mounted other items (bellcranks for throttle/mixture,etc) on the mounts in different areas. chris ________________________________ Message 17 ____________________________________ Time: 05:09:53 PM PST US From: "Bill Bow" Subject: Re: Commander-List: Re: Engine Mounts --> Commander-List message posted by: "Bill Bow" OH ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris Schuermann" Subject: Re: Commander-List: Re: Engine Mounts > --> Commander-List message posted by: Chris Schuermann > > > Bill Bow wrote: > > --> Commander-List message posted by: "Bill Bow" > > > > So the mounts are the same? > > No. Although the two _engines_ can be mounted the same way, the 520 and > 560 aircraft use different mounts.
