Ed’s IO-540 for his Piper Lance II<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

I had my engine overhaul done by Aero Ateliers in Dec 2017\/Jan 2018. The overhaul took approx one month to complete, thus downtime while the engine was out was minimized. Dealing with AeroAteliers was friendly, professional, and informative. I liked that it was a family business. Pricing was competitive.
Now, 8 years later, the engine is running very well, close to book numbers. I have had an engine monitor installed (JPI900) and use Savvy Aviation to check the engine data a few times during the year. All good!<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
