The poster you guys are arguing over isn't flying a Falcon 20. He's working on his instrument in a Diamond Katana. Also known as a DA-20.

Back to the origional post.....Those jets are leaving Eagle MX in better shape than they were going in. In the AF, we had our bad eggs in MX just like in the civilian world. Take it from someone who's done both fix and fly; you can't fix everything.

No you wouldn't. |

I don't think you can go between a 135 and 145 without a major structure change. A 140 is a 135 and size wise is in between the two. Jet 600 was eagles first (now 600BP). Before it was delivered, it had a Brazilian registration.

Latest update on the Eagle/TSA planes
from another board According to some MX guys in ABI that I visited with, they were so concerned about what was being discovered on some of the repo aircraft that they called the FAA to come take a look for themselves. Once instance he told me was where the fuel low level warning kept going off on one of the aircraft, so TSA MX simply cut the appropriate wire so the warning would no longer go off. |
