I have just discovered that the last three engine overhaul shops in Canada
that still did overhauls on these engines no longer rebuild them.
My recent plans to purchase an aircraft with these engines all of a sudden
does not have a future.
The only options are the Mr. RPM conversion or the Merlyn (sp?) conversion.
I do not know enough about the Merlyn conversion other than you can
recognize it with the 4 bladed prop.
Does anyone out there have some information on the Merlyn conversion?
How do the two conversions compare to each other?
In addition, anyone know of any available 680FL or FLP aircraft (for a
reasonable price) with one of the above conversions?
I have just had a potential sale go flat so I am in the mood.
