 |
|
I am filling out the forms to request an airworthiness inspection. Form 8130-12 asks for the engine model and serial number. Mine is an Aerosport Power rebuild. The Aerosport power data plate on the engine shows the serial number as 0240, which in retrospect (after I got back home) seems way too small to be a Lycoming serial number.Â
Is that what they are asking for? Who is deemed to be the engine maker, Lycoming or Aerosport? I'm not aware of a Lycoming serial number anywhere on the engine, though I easily could have missed it. I didn't think to check the engine log book which is at the hangar.

The engine Data plate can only be installed by the engine manufacturer.
If the data plate says Aerosport, it is not a Lycoming. It is an Aerosport Experimental Engine.

My O-360 was rebuilt by Aerosport Power in 1998 and has the original Lycoming data plate with serial number. When I had my airworthiness inspection done by the FAA in 2004, the guy refuse to recognize it as a Lycoming because he said "Aerosport Power builds engines for Experimental aircraft". He required 40 hours Phase I instead of 25 hours I anticipated. (I also had a matched Hartzell CS prop purchased new from Van's)

If it was built from a kit, the OEM does not assign it a serial number. Aerosport probably assigned it their own serial number. Give Sue a call. She’ll tell you what you need to know.
