Diesel conversion project
Found here an example of how a diesel conversion looks in real.
Continental - Technify Motors facility in Altenburg |
Assembling of the Continental diesel engine |
Preparing the diesel engine for shipping to a new customer |
Preparing a Cessna 172 in our facility on airfield Midden Zeeland to fit the Continental diesel engine. Lycoming engine and engine mount removed. |
Cessna 172 during conversion in our facility. Cabin floor partial removed to install/modify fuel system. |
Cessna 172 during conversion in our facility. Instrument panel and engine controls modified to control and monitor the new diesel engine. |
Cessna 172 during conversion in our facility, just before finishing the aircraft. Instrument panel and engine controls installed. Now, these Cessna has combined the throttle, mixture and propeller controls in just a single control lever. |
Conversion finished, first engine runs to check and verify correct operation and installation. |
First flight! And after that, the proud moment when the aircraft will be hand over to his owner. |
