Maintenance -- Engine Overhaul

(download)

The first picture was taken at 11AM this morning, and the last picture was taken at 6 PM this evening. Regulations mandate that every 2000 hours the engine on my Super Cub be completely overhauled. It will probably take me about a week before I am back in the air, but we still have two cubs to fly. It's always a bummer to tear apart a perfectly good running engine, but it was time. I have four brand new cylinders sitting in boxes and all newly certified components ready to go back in. It's a huge job but with Mike's help and some long days, it should go quickly.

About

My name is Matthew Keller. I am an Alaskan Bush Pilot. I own a small air-taxi in Alaska named Blue Ice Aviation (BlueIceAviation.com). I transport people into the Alaskan Wilderness.

Get lost for a month, or an afternoon in my backyard of Waterfalls, Granite Peaks, High Meadow Lakes, and Glaciers. Guided, or un-guided it will change your life.
