Hi Everyone

I am busy doing some homework and number crunching on a R44 Raven II rebuild , Has anyone recently done one as I have a couple questions and would like to pick their brain please.

Thank You

Hi Bleu,

Here is a very intriguing thread about just that!

ZS-RUT was rebuilt by tanglefoot and co. and he really did a good job of keeping us desk jockeys informed - loved it. Hopefully you will do the same.

The guys from Acher Aviation is currently rebuilding the R44 for JNC Helicopters down here in Durban - maybe they can also answer some questions...

There is a “12-yr inspection”, and a “2200 HR overhaul”. They are not the same, and the cost is very different.

I believe Tanglefoot did the 2200 overhaul, commonly referred to as “rebuild”. Arguably, the term “12-yr rebuild” is therefore a misnomer.

There should be a number of people on this Forum who know how this works. What do you want to know?
