Can't seem to nail that number down , eh?
Anyway....don't these 70's have a history of crankshaft cracking failures that require some modifications? I seem to recall the FAA issuing an AD somewhere in the 60's addressing this problem and DH(or Bristol-Siddeley) having a book on required "modifications". Obviously, nothing that is required for your aircraft, but perhaps recommended. What are the "modifications" that were required and how does one determine if previously complied with?
Wonderful looking ship Pavel!
