Subject: loss of use after prop damage

Any suggestions as to how to value loss of use of my airplane after my 
propeller incident?  The propeller was damaged by an FBO in Spokane.  
Does any one know of some formula the insurance industry might use based 
on typical hourly expense multiplied by days grounded?  Would one 
attempt to claim the expense of planned trips on the airlines vs. 
expense of flying my airplane?  For example the price of three airline 
tickets to Reno less six hours expenses for my LNC-4.  I was at the 
beginning of a flying vacation when the incident happened.  During 
August to October I had planned to fly to Spokane (twice), Eugene, Front 
Range, Races at Reno, and perhaps training at Napa.  All those airline 
tickets would be thousands of dollars not to mention loss of use for 
spur of the moment purposes.

The propeller is being repaired in Seattle.  The engine is in the middle 
of tear down for inspection in Tulsa (Barrett).  TCM's position was that 
if the propeller could not be repaired on the airplane that mandatory 
tear down and inspection was required regardless of the results of the 
propeller and prop. flange inspection.
