Couple of years ago we lost 3 Cozy's within few months due to Lycoming
engine problems. Not landing with engine problem, but total lost of all 3
aircraft. Nobody said a word. Like it was the most ordinary thing?
Hi
Buly,
Lycomings
certainly do fail, even under the best conditions, but I find 3 Cozy's in a few
months hard to believe. I just searched the NTSB database, and found
3 accidents between 8/03 and 12/03, which must be what you're referring
to. The first was a fuel contamination issue. The second was an
actual mechanical failure. The third was pilot error on landing (at
idle). Are these the "Lycoming engine problems" you're referring
to?
