Had a prop strike? Our engine overhaul facility is able to perform the required bulk strip and inspection including the use of an approved fluorescent dye penetrant and magnetic particle facilities located in house. Using these approved methods we can ascertain the amount of damage (if any), which will allow us to give you an accurate quote on repair costs before carrying out the required repairs.
