Today's AvWeb lead story:

Lycoming Woes Continue: 5100 Crankshafts To Be "Retired"



But the mandatory service bulletin leaves out O-320's and O-235's.

One wonders if Teledyne is getting its alloys from the same source. I doubt

And where are the reports of deaths or personal injury caused by the bad
cranks? Do we have a cite from a Lycophobe?
