  • To the best of my understanding the engine would no longer be deem as "certified" by TC. In order to use it the airplane would have to be first migrated to an OM C of A and thereafter you could re-engine it using the Airworx documents as "acceptable data" for the installation.

  • I saw you mention in the forum the Airworx O-300 175hp 'conversion' - I can't get anyone from Airworx to call or email me back. Last I checked they weren't seeking an STC for this, just doing major alteration paperwork. But I keep getting conflicting info on whether this would satisfy Transport Canada... Any info you can share?
