Default RE: Oops. Damaged the engine before even getting off the ground

Good Day,

It has been a while since I have made any comments, but here is my two cents....

I have had two engines and managed to create the burr as described in the first entry. The streak across the length of the piston didnt change my engine performance at all, not on either of the engines that it happened on. I have had over a 150 flights on the same engines and piston and rings without any engine failure.

I however do keep an I on it...

Regards
Emosolo
