Hi gang -
Well it looks like a reasonably priced overhaul or rebuild of your mags has gone
down the tubes. You can thank your FAA for that. In order to rebuild and certify
aircraft parts the requirements for a shop are intolerable. My cousin
would do the best job you could pay for but he would have to completely change
his shop setup. The OH shop would have to be contained in it's own separate
environment and all parts would have to have cetification and be kept separate
from any non-certified parts and hardware - this includes screws, washers, etc.
I agree with him that this is too much trouble to go to for a part time activity.
Given the necessary changes, etc. it wouldn't pencil out for the consumer.
He would have to charge the same as any shop. We haven't even addressed
the insurance requirements. Sorry to get your hopes up. On the other hand,
if the owner didn't care about an 8313 or whatever it is, it might be a different
story.
