Was going through logs today on my engines and found the attached page. Anyone know what I have to do to stay on the 7000 tbo program?

In other news, 200 hours in and 10 months into MU2 ownership and Maintainance has run 60 per hour. Had a boost pump and a strobe power supply fail which drove up costs. Had a loose canon plug on an unfeathering pump switch and a flat front tire between inspections as well. This plane continues to impress the heck out of me. Do 1300nm with regularity, hit 300kts at 280 even when it's warm and I am fairly heavy, and make more noise than anyone else on the ramp.

I always dreamed of flying a turbine and I have to say, it is better than I imagined. If these engines being able to go to 7000, it will also be quite 'economical' given my acquisition price.

Awesome Anthony. I just dropped mine off in TN today for the 600 hour. Same experience minus the 300knots. Nothing breaks. Parked next to an amazing and perfect Solitaire. Wow! What a plane!

James - everytime I fly it I am more impressed. Coming into Denver last nite everyone was complaining about the rides and wind shear on frequency. My passengers didn't notice any bumps. The plane flies an ILS better than anything I have been in and is the only plane I have been in where u click off the Ap and fl280 and the plane will not move in any direction for almost a minute. It's a rock.

Sounds like you really have it dialed in.

I didn't look at the picture closely but there is a SB for the -10 Garrett that allows a 7000TBO. From what I remember, there are limitations on utilization such that it needs to fly 35 hours a month, and run every two weeks ??? I can't remember exactly. Also, if you enroll in an engine program, it extends to 7000 hours.
