Scam about some Morane Saulnier MS760

That aircraft is registered as he was supposed to be.

Marbore VI C2 engines was type certificated in the US

Marbore II C3 engines was type certificated in the US

If you have a MS760 who does not have theses engines or Marbore VI J2, and is registered as standard category, falsification was made for the registration of that aircraft with the FAA and that aircraft need to be registered as EXPERIMENTAL .

A lot of people was tricked and lied, and now the aircraft is illegal to fly.

Have a aircraft inspected by a mechanic who know the regulations, the aircraft, and honest.

Wheel braking on take off

Probably due to aging metal, a main gear wheel broke at take off

The wheel stayed on the landing gear

I could make the landing but without using the brakes, it was pulling the aircraft to the right ( side that wheel was broken )

And no hard landings, even with the students

The Famous FOUGA with CJ610 engines

This is the only one who was made or should I say played with

I went to see and inspected that aircraft

He was modified with 2 CJ610 engines instead of Marbore II

Problem: no records of any test flights made, no weight and balance, no record of the condition of the engines, no records of airframe modifications made, because main spar was cut to fit the engines.....

It was a good crazy project

It could have been done but with serious records 

Fouga out off the hangar flying again

After 7 years in a hangar, that fouga is flying again in Georgia.

It took a couple of days for the fine tuning of the aircraft having his annual inspection overdue

Hot and humid

One brake aluminum hydraulic line was cracked due to aging

And now the proud owner is ready to take his check ride for CM170 rating

after having given him the necessary flight and ground instruction  

MS760 inspection

 I went for an MS760 inspection, and even if the aircraft look good, nice paint , old avionics complete and not tested, I did my inspection as each mechanic should do:

First Borescope with a real borescope not a autozone one!

Even if last entries was done by a mechanic, and then the aircraft never flew again, how he could missed the cracks and holes far beyond possible repairs, since nobody is doing overhaul for the Turbomeca Marbore engines.

I do not talk about pencil whipping overhaul.

Right engine outer combustion chamber:

 Left engine outer combustion chamber:

To top it off, wings have corrosion.

Be careful,  use a competent mechanic who know the aircraft 

It could end up to have a airplane costing you too much to fix or taking place in your hangar for a long time.

Remember Standard category MS760 have 1000 hours TBO time for the Marbore VI C2 engines mandatory and 750 hours for Marbore II C3 engines.

Other types of Marbore like VI J2 was never type certificated in the US so can be installed only on MS760 under experimental category.
