Hi
Group, I just wanted to thank Bill Maddox and Diemech Turbine Solutions for an effort above and beyond the call. Bill
just left my shop after a 10 day session where he and I worked side by side to install my Walter engine. I wanted
to be sure everyone installing a turbine knew this service is available. (I haven't been worked so hard since Bob
Pastusek's last visit!). We installed the engine plenum, standby alternator engine controls and nearly all the
firewall components. Not only did we install them but Bill - with thousands of hours of turbine time - explained each
part, what it did, and how to maintain it. (Bill's currently building 2 lancair propjets in his shop in Washington
state). The success of our experience would not been possible if not for the effort of
Marv Kaye and the Diemech Turbine Solutions team over nighting us parts the entire time. They even custom painted my engine
Ferrari Red to match my color scheme. (They suggested I do this - I didn't even ask them.). I hope to be flying
late spring or early summer. Best regards and season's greetings to all. Joe
