Overhaul Prices Going Up?

Post by rwtucker »

I just received this notice from a friend who has created an overhaul brokerage business. I was considering his service for overhauling my TSIO-360 before selling it.
Continental has made Aviall it's sole parts distributor. Here's an article on that.

Parts are going up 20-30% May 15th. Since parts are 75% of total overhaul cost, I'm expecting a big increase in overhaul costs. To my knowledge, factory engines are not changing.

I have some shops that have not increased prices but they will very soon. Let me know if I can help you get in touch with them.
