The 402's Engines Are Being Rigged

Friday was a big day as both engines were hung on the Cessna 402. The guys are busy this week hooking up hoses, running lines, and adjusting control linkages to bring the engines back to life. With the spar straps installed, the engines nestled back in their nacelles, and the annual inspection well underway, the momentum pushing this project toward completion continues to build.

On Monday, Mike used the left engine as a teaching tool for a class on turbo-charging systems.
