I was thinking it woulod be in the 5 AMU range (just a guess)... It
sounds like the shop is being fair to you and that is good.. The last
fuel tank repair we had a new shop make they ran WAY over their estimate
of hours but still honored their original amount. We appreciated that
and will take 43H there for our next annual.

On a good not 5 AMU's divided by 3 is a lot easier to choke down than a
sole ownership would be. :-)

How many AMU's is all this going to set you back Jack?


Estimate was 50-70 hours labor at $70/hr. Parts were 1.2 AMUs. Do the
math and it's just south of 5 AMUs on the low side. We don't like to
think about the high side. The labor estimate was purposely high as the
shop doesn't like to overrun. One nice thing is that they didn't track
the number of hours on the right wing as they had extra learning curve
time to deal with. They're going to take the number of hours for the
left wing (which is taking much less time) and double it. I'll be sure
to post the final AMU amount. Kleenex gladly accepted.
