Fellow Eagle drivers,

it turned out to be a good decision to thoroughly inspect my new Eagle prior to reassembly after pulling him out of the container. I found a longeron cracked at the right gear leg. So long story short: To do the SB317 work I need to remove the engine. I'm wondering if it might be possible to hang the complete engine section FWF including the prop (Hartzell 2-blader) onto an engine hoist via that standard lug on the top of the crankcase. What do you think?

Regards,
Tom
