Avionics Upgrades and Aircraft Maintenance for Tennessee Pilots. FAA Part 145 — KRKW, TN

Aircraft We Know

Cirrus

Cirrus aircraft are capable, comfortable and technically advanced | and they deserve a shop that treats them that way. From a single radio swap to a complete panel upgrade, and from the annual to a pre-buy, we look after the whole aircraft under one roof and one certificate.

Cirrus Avionics

Everything behind the panel, handled in one hangar

Whether you are planning a full upgrade or chasing a single fault, the work is scoped around your aircraft and how you fly it | and you will know what we recommend, and why, before anything is ordered.

Panel & flight displays

  • Full panel upgrades

    A complete modernisation planned around your mission, your budget and the equipment already worth keeping.

  • Primary flight displays

    Modern PFDs installed, configured and calibrated, so the upgrade feels right from the first flight.

  • Engine monitoring systems

    Clearer engine data in the cockpit, helping you spot trends early and fly with more confidence.

  • Autopilot installation

    Autopilot systems fitted and integrated with your displays, to ease workload on longer and IFR flights.

Communication & navigation

  • GPS / NAV / COM installation

    Navigators installed and integrated with the rest of the panel, so everything talks to everything else.

  • NAV / COM radio

    Radios replaced, upgraded or repaired, keeping communication clear and navigation dependable.

  • Transponder / ADS-B

    Transponder and ADS-B equipment installed and checked, so the aircraft stays compliant and visible.

  • Audio panel / intercom

    A quieter, clearer cockpit for you and your passengers, with audio that is easy to manage in flight.

Compliance, safety & support

  • IFR certification (91.411 / 91.413)

    Altimeter, static system and transponder checks carried out in-house, to keep you legal for IFR flight.

  • ELT

    Emergency locator transmitters installed, inspected and serviced | the equipment you hope never to need.

  • Software / database updates

    Keeping your avionics current, so the panel performs the way the manufacturer intended.

  • Wiring repair / troubleshooting

    Patient, methodical fault-finding that traces intermittent problems to their source, rather than guessing at parts.

  • Removal of existing equipment

    Outgoing equipment removed with care, with the wiring and paperwork left tidy for whatever comes next.

IFR Certification

24 months

The interval for both checks under 14 CFR 91.411 and 91.413.

If your Cirrus flies IFR, two checks have to be current. We carry out both in our own hangar, and we are happy to line them up with your annual so the aircraft is only down once.

  • 91.411

    Altimeter, static system and automatic altitude reporting, tested and certified.

  • 91.413

    Transponder tested and inspected, so the aircraft is legal to operate in controlled airspace.

  • One visit

    Scheduled alongside the annual where the dates allow, to save you a second trip.

Not sure when yours were last signed? Send us the logbook dates and we will tell you.
