- O-470R TBO times - Pilots of America
So, what exactly is the TBO on an O-470R engine? I have one book from the Cessna Pilot Association that states TBO is 1500 hours, while I've seen other references to 1800 hours What gets the TBO up to 1800?
- TBO v. # of Years in Engine - Pilots of America
TBO is advisory for non-commercial operators Lycoming puts a 12 year TSO limit on things regardless of hours If you've got a constant speed prop, the prop itself might only have 5 years on the TBO As Racers points out, planes that aren't flown frequently rarely make it anywhere near TSO

- Flying an engine past TBO. . . - Pilots of America

- O-300s - Love em? Hate em? Typical maintenance costs and overhaul cost
0-300 is typically smoother running, uses a little more fuel than its 4 cyl rivals and has a factory reccommended 1800 hr TBO vs a 2000 TBO for an 0-320 Overhaul cost a little more due to two more cylinders and there are more possible failure points due to the extra cyls, valves, rods etc They do sound a lot healthier than a 4 cylinder engine
- Continental 0-200D TBO - Years as important as hours?
Hello, I'm currently looking at buying a 2011 aircraft with a Continental 0-200D that has 499 hours I was already aware of the 2000 TBO, but just recently discovered that these motors also have a 12 year TBO Which means this aircraft's engine will technically be past its overhaul time next
