Good info here, and already owning a P120 makes it even better.
If I had an extra $27,000 I'd buy a AMT Nike...but I don't! An amazing piece of kit it certainly is!!
Seriously though........I have heard the AMT's last a very long time. But regarding an earlier post, I can't imagine waiting until a turbine fails....someone could get hurt there...like fatally!
And I just don't want to throw away the engine like it's some electric foamy plane. I need to be able to use this thing for awhile.

But another thing to note, this is not going to be a flying engine, it will be in a utility type of operation and maybe running for 2-3 hours at a time.
