Hello again All...wanted to pick your brain again. I know this discussion as been discussed a few time in the forums, but I didn't find in the searches this question and thought some of the prop experts here may know.
I am considering buying a local prop, HC-C2YK-1b/7666 A-2. It was overhauled 10 years and has not flown since. The prop is covered in a hangar. The person that oh'd it bought a new prop instead. The prop as I understand is subject to the 100 ECI AD. I have been reading the ADs and SBs on the prop, and I am trying to find out how or if these ADs and SBs apply to the experimental cat.?? I am also researching this extensively so I can determine how to offer $$ (prop shops have said they would looking at 1500 to 2500).
As I understand it ADs, even the exp cat, are to be adhered to. But what about the SBs? In this case part of the SB, HC-SB-61-227, says that at the next OH or 72 months the hub is to be replaced. If that is the case then I would have to replace this hub with a B hub....probably a deal killer for me.
If I end up buying this prop, I would have it resealed and ECI'd prior to flying = 800$., since its been sitting for 10years
