Encountered 50+ knot crosswinds at FL180, went down to 12500 to get out of them. Slow slog down to Porto Alegre. Overall condition of all engines is good but the mechanics notes state that engines 2 & 3 are showing signs of wear damage. I noted that I could only achieve 50" of MP wet on takeoff. Used to get 60" wet. Only one leg left to go.






 
Sorry to hear that about the engines Jeff... yes good thing just one more leg for you. Anything you know specifically or? I'll get a mention of a turbo bearing starting to get hot or maybe a high CHT, but I'll back off right away. I try to nip that warning in the bud anyway as familiar is breeding respect (in this case).

I took only two pics at Easter Island; even tho taking a pic has never resulted in a lockup for me, I try not to temp fate. So I go back later to take a couple "fake" ones... and as I am about to take off, I start thinking... "why in the world do I want to take off and risk damaging the engines for a couple of faky pictures???" :isadizzy:

T'would be nice if each B-377 has it's own maintenance record (one record for each livery.)
