What We Do

Everything the aircraft needs, in one hangar

Inspections, avionics and maintenance under one roof and one certificate | so nobody hands you off, and nobody points at anybody else.

Annual Inspections
The cornerstone of airworthiness. We catch the small issues before they become expensive ones.
100-Hour Inspections
Fast turnaround and detailed reporting for Part 91 operators and flight-training aircraft.
Pre-Buy Inspections
Know exactly what you are signing for. Digital reports, photographs and honest findings.
Avionics & Panel Installation
Authorized for Garmin, Avidyne and Aspen. Panels designed and fitted by specialists, not generalists.
IFR Certification
Pitot-static, transponder and altimeter checks certified in-house, on schedule, every 24 months.
General Maintenance
Scheduled and unscheduled work, from oil changes and tyres to clearing a stubborn squawk list.

All work performed under our FAA Part 145 certificate and signed off by an A&P/IA.

Owner Feedback

What owners say after the annual

4.9 average from 61 verified customers

Chris quoted the panel and the install in the same conversation. No hand-offs, no finger-pointing, and the aircraft was back in the air inside the week.
Mark T.Cirrus SR22 G6
The pre-buy report was the most thorough I have seen | photographs, findings and a straight recommendation. It saved me from a bad purchase.
Dana R.Piper Archer
They found the ADS-B fault two other shops had missed, fixed it properly, and explained exactly what had been wrong. That is why I fly in from Knoxville.
