Parks Industries
offers the Spar and H-Beam AMOCs for $36,500 if done at the same
time. Parks will also do the H-Beam AMOC for an aircraft with the
Nogle & Black Common Spar AMOC.
We
do not have any pre-conditions except for the Eddy current
inspection which we credit $500 included in the turn key price. We
try to schedule at least 3 aircraft for this inspection as we bring
in a tech from Dallas for this. With 3 total aircraft there is no
additional charge to the owner. This has been a standard policy for
the last 2 years. If we find something else that needs to be
addressed there will be additional parts and labor and owner will be
notified in advance. The Station 66 compliance is included with the
Spar AMOC.
The T-34 Spar Corp WS66 can be applied
to an aircraft with Parks Spar to extend re-inspection interval of
that area from 500 hours to 3,000 hours.
Aviadesign does not have any Saunders
Straps in stock. They want a sizeable number of people to place
orders before they will resume production. If aircraft has a
Saunders Strap, permission must be obtained from the FAA to use the
T-34 Spar Corp's WS66 AMOC.
The T-34 Spar Corp Doubler Plate AMOC is currently
priced at $5,000 for the kit and estimated $15,000 installed
(including kit). Our Wing Station 66 kit is $2,500 and $5,000
installed. Our ALEC kit is $10,000 and $12,500 installed. We would
offer a package deal on all three for $30,000 installed.
Re-inspection interval for the ALEC AMOC
is 2900 hours. It requires the bolt hole eddy current inspection of
the 8 (#8 and #9) fastener holes in the spar carry through.
The T-34 Spar Corp AMOCs are available
from six installers around the USA. Click
here for information
on and the location of these vendors.
AD 2001-31-18 requires inspection of the
lower, after bathtub fittings. If a dye penetrant inspection is
performed or an eddy current inspection, the re-inspection interval
is 500 hours. If both are accomplished, the re-inspection interval
is 1,500 hours.
