Our proposals assume:

  • Engine shall be found in normal wear & tear condition.
  • Engine shall be delivered to ACI in complete configuration – no missing parts.
  • Engine shall be compliant with the engine logbook.
  • Repair of Damaged engine parts is estimated based on the engine to be found in a normal run-out condition, no abnormal findings such as FOD, over temp, over torque, overspeed etc.

  • TAT (Turnaround time): ACI’s Partners will perform the overhaul within minimum 55 working days, after approval of the TDR (Tear Down Report) by Customer (expected within minimum 25 working days). The turnaround time begins upon arrival of the engine at ACI facility and finishes when the engine is shipped back to Customer. The turnaround time does not include the time taken by Customer to respond to ACI appeals if such shall be submitted to Customer after the arrival of engine to ACI facilities partners.
  • The overhauled engine shall be released back to Customer on either an FAA Form 8130-3 or EASA Form-1.·

 

HSI (HOT SECTION INSPECTION):

A Hot Section Inspection generally performed after half time hours to guaranty the integrity of the engine until the next overhauled. A runup is performed before disassembly. The hot sections are removed with the engine on-wing.

Our Partners’ flat rate HSI include:

  • Opening, inspection and reinstallation work
  • Only Combustion chamber Assy is shipping to our partners’ repair shop to perform the disassembly, the inspection and the fuel nozzle bench test (2 at 3 days on place if no defects are detected)
  • Flat Rate Price include also the shipping of this Combustion Chamber Assy to repair shop (other parts than the Combustion Chamber assy are shipped only if we find defects during inspection and not repairable on place).
  • HSI standard KIT

 

Parts Visually Inspected:

– The Fan Blades (generally for FOD…),
– Impeller
– The Main Oil filter (for any eventual problems as metal chips or debris).
– HT Disk and blades are visually and dimensionally inspected. (If the dimensions are under the quota, it is commonly accepted by the two parties that the shop will automatically try to save the blades, because of the JT15 BLADES high cost – this service comes in addition of the HSI price).
– Small Duct assembly is disassembled to inspect the HT Stator as well as the Small Duct.
– Large Duct
– Combustion Liner.
– Fuel Nozzles are Pressure checked and Spray checked.
– The #4 Bearing Housing

 

A HSI is subject to additional findings out of tolerance and not include the repair or replacement of major parts.
Unlike the PT6A, the JT15 parts require a passage to the repair shop. Of course, if during the inspections, the technicians on site have any doubt regarding a removed part, he will have to send it to the shop to remove the doubt.
Of course, if any of the removed parts required more than an inspection, like a repair or a replacement…, it will come in addition of the HSI price. If for any reason, the Customer refuse the observation of the repair shop, he will (at its own expenses) receive back the removed parts after the full payment of the evaluation, inspection (more than the parts included in the HSI), additional work performed on those parts, additional shipping cost, deposit for the SPECIAL SHIPPING BOX (that the Customer will have to return), and ACI fee & expenses.

ACI chooses its partners according to their services, and the quality / price ratio that they bring to our customers. We always try (where possible and reasonable) to lower prices by finding better solutions on the market. This obviously depends on the time the customer has. In case of AOG the customer will generally prefer the fastest solution.

In any case, we manage for our Customers worldwide Repairs, OVERAULED and HSI with special rates and services. The customer have always the right to say no.
