Good point on the air filters. The M1's air filters had about double the filter surface of the M60. The M60 series ran a 1970 cubic inch air cooled diesel. We had to replace the M1 filters 2-3 times as often as the M60 filters. The procedure was to blow them out then weigh them. If after cleaning they were over a certain weight we got new filters. On the M60's the filters were only replaced when after cleaning there was excessive smoke. I had the same M60A3 from 83 to 87 and never got new filters. Every M1 I had got a least one set of filters while I was signed for it and I never had the same tank for 4 years. We were not putting on any more miles/hours. Just filters on the turbine were more critical than on a piston engine.
Loved the power and extra speed of the M1's but I can see where the fuel consumption is hard to justify in a civilian application other than aircraft.
