MORE AIRPLANES GROUNDED BY TCM CRANKSHAFT BULLETIN
Just when you thought their were no further problems with your Teledyne
Continental Motors (TCM) engine comes word of another batch of
crankshafts being added to the related Mandatory Service Bulletin (MSB).
AVweb has learned that 388 additional crankshafts are being added to a
revised bulletin, MSB 00-5C.  If you fly a TCM 360-, 470-, 520- or 550-
series engine with certain crankshaft serial numbers manufactured
between April 1998 and March 2000, you could be one of the unlucky ones.
If you are, you may soon be getting a phone call from TCM telling you
what to do next.  (Banging your head against the wall is not an option.)

   NOTE: AVweb's NewsWire <http://avweb.com/n/?42a> contains details on
   the MSB plus a link to the TCM site for more info.
