John,

Might be educational for us turbo minded folks to have someone knowledgeable look at your turbo and offer an opinion as to why it happened. I know there is a good bunch of guys over on homeshopmachinist that might shed some light on why it happened. That is unless it is obvious. I had the motor shaft of my mill/drill snap. I sent them some pictures. Got back some good ideas. At the least take us some close-up pictures and post them.

 

Glad you’re landing was a non-event!

 

Regards

Dean Head

Cozy MK4 #1040 (one day it will be turbo rotary powered)
