Rental engines are common in the turbine world. They're typically used during hot sections and overhauls so you can keep using your airplane. The cool part is that the engine program pays for the engine rental if you have an "unscheduled event."

In 3 years we called on the mobile service guys 3 times, nothing major, but necessary for flight. They didn't let us down, great computer aided troubleshooting, knowledgeable mechanics.

Very impressive, Clint. Clearly you get what you pay for!

I think with the Mustang you get more than you pay for. Still pay quite a bit, but an amazing value if you have a jet mission.

Clint:

Given the remote chances of an event like you encountered I suspect you will fly with less concern about an engine failure going forward. No way it happens again right?

One never knows if it will happen again or not. However, if it does, it will help having been through it before.

Jeff I want to second that…

PWC Mobile Teams are excellent…..PWC takes excellent care of their clients should anything out of the ordinary happen…and even with a routine "snag" they are there pronto and help relieve any pain for the aircraft owner /operator…AOG whatever...

and that is true for a Cessna Mustang. or a a brandnew or used Falcon 2000LX(S )or Falcon 7X…

good people at PWC…they take care of their customers the good "old fashioned" way….

no questions asked….they will fix it….
