Updates: Below emergency exit window frame corrosion inspection was good, no corrosio= found. Completing the software update to DU885's to prevent the tone during flight.=(no charge). Gear corrosion: We have shipped "main gear inner race" to Savanah Engineers for evaluation t= make sure the core is repairable, we will elect to exchange this part, thi= will not effect completion date only final price, the evaluation is to det=rmine if part has core value or scrap. I will have detailed parts pricing spread sheet on Monday from Ron Bystrom o=r Lead sales rep on this inspection. I trust Ron and he give honest evaluat=ons for safety of flight, all parts we are changing are a necessity. At this time gear corrosion repair estimate $120k to $150k depending on cor= value of parts we are going to exchange. Our gear corrosion inspection is 48 month event, with all the new and improv=ments we are completing, I expect no issues in this area for 8 years. We are going to install an improved main landing gear cover plate that preve=ts moisture from entering the main gear axle area. Normal operations utiliz= this area for an axle jack during tire changes, (tire change is approx onc= a year, or 120 landings). EFTA_R1_01337244 EFTA02354647
