Lycoming crankshafts

I don't know about anyone else, but Lycoming's latest dirty trick with the
crankshafts sure would leave a bad taste in my mouth, if I owned one. I
would not want to consider any purchase with a Lycoming in it.

What good is part tracing, ore to finished part? I thought that was meant
to protect from these kind of problems occurring?

I would think a class action law suite would sure be in order, for all of
the people it must involve.

Hasn't Continental pulled some crap like that in the recent past, also?

It sure gives me a lot of faith in certified aircraft engines. Not.

If another company were to step up with a new technology engine, with
replacement STC's for most all of the popular spam cans, they would clean
house.

Drive yet another nail in the coffin of GA. :-((
