Quote: | I have been flying my RV-10 since April 5th and I have just finished flying the test period off. The plane is equipped with an I0-540-D4A5 engine which I bought from Aero Sport. The engine didn't want to idle very well, and it also had a rough right mag and an oil leak.
I am fortunate in that I live about 30 minuites flying time from Aero Sport so I decided to take it over to them to see if they could help me out.
On the first trip, Ted ( chief mech ?)and Brian (one of the partners in the business) spent about an hour and a half trouble shooting and adjusting the mixture and idle for me. When they were done, it ran like a Swiss watch and would idle happily at 500 RPM.
I went home, but found that the mag was still rough during the mag check.
I returned to Aero Sport yesterday and Brian spent another hour troubleshooting, and had another of the mechanics pull the wiring off the right mag. Course, I had messed up and one of the spring connectors was folded over and was not allowing any spark to #1 bottom plug. They replaced the rubber grommet and reassembled the harness and the mag checked out perfectly.
During all this time they also chased my oil leak and I think it is fixed.
They refused to give me a bill. NO CHARGE. Folks, this is one classy company to do business with. Both Sue and Bart came out to take a good look at the 10. It's the first one in these parts to fly, so the don't see them often.
A happy customer....
