ASh-62

[NZASH-62]

Good morning all, new member here.

I have an Ash-62, that is missing various parts which are proving difficult to obtain. This engine is non-airworthy and won't fly again, but the hope is to get it running as a static display. Can anyone help with a parts source, or advise if any R-1820 parts are interchangeable?

- Starter/generator
- RH magneto
- Supercharger main shaft
- Fuel pump
- Carburettor

Thanks for any leads, and I look forward to learning from you all.

Hugh

If you want you may try to get a contact with "Wytwórnia Sprzętu Komunikacyjnego PZL-Kalisz". They still making parts for the Ash-62IR engines as memo serves.

or if no joy there check out aircraft on the Canadian register because about 15 years ago someone in Canada was re-engining DC-3s with Ash-62's

I agree PZL are probably your best bet but there should be quite a lot of used ASh-62IRs around in various states because the Antonov An-2 uses them and there are a few of those about,. No American engine parts will fit, they are all in inches, the Shvetsovs are all metric.

PZL is right direction - they are also doing ASh-62 overhauls if you need this in flyable condition...

Thanks very much for your responses all. Yes please if you could check your sources, non-airworthy parts are fine by me!
