Maintenance and Modifications

Maintenance and Repair

Our decades of experience have given us a great understanding of piston powered Beechcraft.  We have acquired or made all of the specialty tools and jigs necessary to do major repairs on the aircraft. Multiple copies of parts catalogs, structural repair manuals, wiring diagrams, and maintenance manuals are available to and used by employees.  Comprehensive inspection guides are used during annuals, and work is repeatedly checked by multiple employees to eliminate errors.  Our in-depth knowledge and familiarity allows us to diagnose problems faster, and make repairs more rapidly, saving the customer time and money.  Inspections and repairs are never done hastily to avoid unnecessary mistakes and possibly serious consequences.

We have the capability to repair, rebuild, or overhaul basically any component of the aircraft.  From installing new tires to replacing critical airframe structure, no job is too big or small.

Aircraft Pre-buy Inspections

When it comes to buying your next Beechcraft, make sure there are no hidden nightmares.  We offer complete pre-buy inspections to give you the best intel into your potential purchase.  With the average Beechcraft being 30 years old, it is not only wise, but necessary to have a competent pre-buy inspection performed by a qualified shop that specializes on the particular model under consideration.  We have these qualifications from years of experience working on nothing but Beechcraft.
