From: "ianxbrown" Thanks for the feedback and sympathy. I had not been a regular visitor to the forums, but I do receive the daily digest. I was unaware of the Matco "fix" but I'm a bit more confident in the AntiSplat bearing replacement, even though it's a bit more expensive. There is no adjustment of the bearing tightness and it's sealed for life. I think one factor in all of this is that anyone who flips over probably places a higher priority on safe technique. I have the good news that I was able to get the prop repaired, and the engine has no visible interior damage. The Magnaflux testing will be the definitive answer but I'm looking at a lot less cost for the engine and prop than I feared. $1,000 for the prop and $2,000 for the motor. Initial fears were $3k for prop and $5k for motor. You probably live with regrets too. Mine is "why the heck didn't I overshoot if I was going to land half way down the runway?"

I couldn't disagree with this statement more. I think one might say people who haven't flipped over probably place a higher priority on safe technique. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message rv-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/RV-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/rv-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/rv-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
