Does anyone have any info on the trouble with the turbo shaft bearings
getting worn and loose on the Cont 550?
Don mentioned it to me at Oshkosh and I have not seen any posts about it.
I believe there were a number of engines with this problem leading to power
loss. Has the problem been identified and fixed?
Thanks,
E. Kovacs
