I have been going through my notes I have been keeping in regards to my issues with the at400. One of the things I have noted here, and do in fact even remember specifically being informed of is regarding AMT’s intentions on warranties. I actually believe it was you John ( if not, then it was someone else, but nonetheless, this was under the new ownership of AMT ) that yourself told be early on when you guys first were moving AMT over to the new facility that all issues were going to be covered under warranty, and told me about a plan for warranting all AMTs. I was specifically told that AMT was going to announce that all AMT engines were to have a lifetime warranty, except for FOD damage, or lack of proper care/maintenance, as you had felt that AMT’s were so reliable and bulletproof It was going to be one of the ways you were going to revitalize and remarket AMT by… several weeks later I was told I could send my engine in for the repair .. and it was only once you had it disassembled that I needed $600+ of repair ( which I paid ½ of ) .. I guess original promises and aspirations completely fell apart huh ?? and I was duped into letting you charge me what you did. I should not only be requesting a new engine from you, but also my $300 back …..


Also regarding the repairs, I have a question for Rodney:

The last time my at400 was in for repair in WV while Jim owned the company, you told me that if I waited another few weeks that AMT was going to be getting in new Iconel combustion chambers, and you would upgrade mine to the new ones which were becoming standard on the at400s … several weeks later you told me my engine was fixed, upgraded, reassembled and tested. In fact , I remember you telling me that because my temps were now so low with the new chamber and the tolerances of my engine that you were then able to crank it up for even a little more thrust ( I believe it was putting out 41 lbs ). …. Here’s where it gets fun … The next time my engine went in for repair after yet another seizure and ONLY 1 FLIGHT ( This was at FBF … you remember that one guys ?? ) was into the new facility in OH … John and Tim told me that part of the $600 of repairs incurred was a new combustion chamber that I needed , as the old stainless steel one was totally corroded … W--T--F !!!!!

1) I though I had a new Iconel combustion chamber put in already only 1 flight before ??
2) With a total of around 30 flights, how the hell would even a cheap stainless steel chamber of the worse possible quality have gone bad ? come on, even jet-joe chambers outlast that !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
3) Who lied to me and when ? did I have a new Iconel chamber installed at the WV facility by you Rodney ?? I was told back then that this was the case….. or am I being lied to by the new owners in OH ?? SOMEONE LIED !! and I want to know who !!!


I would like my $300 back please … and that’s on top of a replacement brand new working at400 ( or buy mine back at a 10% depreciated value) …
