Default New O-320 packaging and presentation.
I have never bought a new O-320 before, so was not quite sure how it would arrive. If anyone is interested to see the crate and contents, take a look here.

I am not sure if shipping within N America is the same. This was to the UK.

Nice engine, you'll be very happy with the Aero Sport. My packaging looked the same in N America!

Default Quick Build quality?
Hi Steve
How did the quality of your European-built RV4 kit compare to your RV9 Phillipine-built kit? Was it really any better?

Default Lycoming packaging
Hi Steve,

My Lycoming O-320 came direct from the factory, not Aerosport Power, and arrived in a wooden framed cardboard box, filled with foam.

I don't think anything is safe from gross mis-handling or errant fork-lifts, but mine arrived safely.

Cheers

Martin in Oz
