Thanks for the thought Mason.
I would love to pour over the paperwork.
Data plate, well after one of the engineers told me about a possible
required data plate I went to look and there was an additional plate there!
The Engine model number was and the date (74) was there, so what is the
problem?
The engineer said that yes it is there but there is no title (label) for the
stamped numbers and that is what is was complaining about.
A picture of yours to see if it is the same would be great, I don't
specifically need the rubbing as I am looking for any other printing that
might be on the plate to identify what the numbers stamped on the plate
refer to.
Seat bolts, thank you for the offer to make eight more attachment seat bolts
but I would be very worried if the seat ripped out of it's track during a
rapid deceleration, your modified bolts might be stronger than the original
but as I fly for the Government I have to keep on the legal side of things
as much as possible.
I will continue to keep my ear to the ground for these seats track bolts and
advise when/if I find some.

Would this renew the single vs. multi engine debate?
I see a lot of single engine light planes cross the LA metropolitan area at
about 1,000' AGL every night, with no place to land within 50 miles. Multi
engine planes are more expensive in many ways. In my opinion, it is always a
wise investment.

N41KV was the last MR RPM conversion done in the late 1999 or 2000.
You know about the "How to make a small fortune in Aviation?" Start
with a large one. This is an example.
these are very good photos of the new paint job that I have not seen

A firm in Toronto did the annual (they have been doing this aircraft for a
number of years) I purchased it sight unseen (photos only).
When it is the only one in the world for sale
and you have waited for over two years to get one
and the owner keeps putting it on year long contracts instead of selling it,
I expected to sink another $50,000 into it but not for basic things like
installing a non-existent hydraulic filter.
Someone has suggested that this aircraft may not be airworthy due to the 18"
square hole cut out of the aft cabin bulkhead to accommodate previously
installed equipment, that will be fun.
I did not have the cash up front to buy one (if available) that was in
better shape but I have the cash flow to slowly support the aircraft and
bring it up to snuff.
Look at the prices some are asking for the two 680's (Mr.RPM) currently for
sale $395,000. & $425,000. , not in my ballpark.
Happy humbugs!
Tom F.
