Attention:. Ted Osgood, Aircraft Sales Director
Dear Ted,
AAG has inspected Aetna's S-76C+, serial number 760472 (N162AE) to the extent requested and
with the exception of the items listed below, we find the helicopter to be in airworthy condition as
delivered. Items discussed with you that required closer examination and have been cleared are:
• Main Wheel Brakes: Within limits for continued service.
• Rotor Brake Disc: Within limits for continued service (some wear grooves present but
average wear is .499" thickness; limit is .495").
The items of concern are:
• No. 2 Engine T5 Indicator `Press-to-Test' function inoperative. Estimate $1200 to $3000 for
repair depending on internal condition. Several days turnaround at best.
• One Main Wheel has one missing tang for the brake. If we remove to inspect further, the
wheel needs to be overhauled, or replaced if beyond repair. Expect up to $6000 for new wheel
and tire. Could be less if repairable, but new tire should be installed anyway.
• Both engine exhaust ejectors and prolongators (4 pieces total) are worn through and need
welded repair. Estimate $500 each, plus shipping. Turnaround is one to two days. Note that
if disassembled for repair, the nutplates and clips will be destroyed due to their condition and
replacement parts and labor is estimated to be $800 per engine.
• Nose Landing Gear Actuator reported as leaking statically. This is not uncommon, nor
beyond limits. It should be monitored and cycled and if persistent or if leakage increases,
repair or replace the actuator. Estimate $6000 for parts plus several labor hours.
Lastly, the SOAP samples were taken prior to the start of the inspection and Fedexed
immediately, and generally take a week to process. We have not received the results at this time.
Sincerely,
Associated Aircraft Group, Inc.
