Default K160-G2 fire damaged

My K160-G2 was involved in a diesel fuel tank rupture during a crash. All of the electronics burned up. The turbine rotor turns freely. Please see the picture. Is it worth sending to Kingtech for repairs?

Why don't you get ahold of Dirk and have a conversation with him about this question including your pics. As him if he thinks it's worth sending in for an estimated repair bil.

Barry, the problem stems from the fact that your webpage shows an old email address that doesn't work anymore....

Just checked, everything is current, not sure what you're talking about, got a link to the page or that none working email address? Are you the op or friend of op?

My email, phone is printed everywhere, even here, don't know how much more accessible I can be, lol, either way it's all good, but quite motivated to sort out any confusions though.

Hey Barry,

No I am not the OP. For a long time your email address used the Kingtech turbines domain. Then you switched to using a .gmail.com domain which showed up on corrrespondence and on the website like it does now.

Ciip of the email address stuff I got from Vera some time ago;

"From: Gary [[email]zeb29@Sent: Friday, August 12, 2016 2:22 PM
To: [email protected]
Subject: K-160G 029 engine"



Check this thread where neither you Dirk or Kurt answered the question about an email address.

Dirk's not responsible for emails, both emails address are and have been current. [email protected] goes directly to me, [email protected] goes to Vera and myself. I don't know where you got your info.
