Some AAIP (alternate airframe inspection programs - I believe) allow engine TBOs to be extended. Other programs have you pay into the cost of an overhaul so when TBO hits then you don’t have to pay. Maybe he meant one of those two options…
@@theultimatejetguide yes it was on a program but to say TBO doesn’t exist is very misleading. One has to account for down time and being these engines had 500 hours left that was coming soon.
I had a broker once tell me “there is no TBO it’s on a program”.
