Hi,

Started the engine the other day after the annual, which was the first start in several months due to us having just bought the plane.

I heard a clicking sound and after looking, we found the starter drive gear still on the ring gear.

How can I solve this? Do I need to have the starter overhauled or replaced?

Thank you
