2007 Robinson R44
| Overview | |
| Listing Status: | Inactive |
| The main rotor blades which were installed new in 2014 were the Dash-7 blades. There are outstanding life-limit items that must be addressed with the Annual in order for this R44 to be airworthy again, hence the lower price. Robinson Helicopter Company mandates that certain parts be replaced at the 12 year mark, including, but not limited to the tail rotor blades N579DG has 2167-TT. At 2200 hours, there are additional parts that will need to be overhauled or replaced. These include the Tail Rotor Hub, Main Rotor Gearbox and Hub, Tail Rotor Hub and Upper Frame. The following 12-year/2200-hour parts have already been replaced or overhauled: Main Rotor Blades, Engine, Main Rotor Swashplate, Tail Rotor Pitch Control, Actuator, Main Rotor Spindles, Bearing Assembly, Spring Clutch and Clutch Shaft. The tail rotor guard was replaced March 23, 2016 per the airframe logbook entry. The tail boom was also replaced at a recent Annual due to a dent. | |
