AMATEUR-BUILT
Building your own aircraft? Let’s make sure you’re not going to break it in the process. Buying one you just fell in love with? Let me see if your heart is going to get broken or not. I’m here to help in any way I can. If I can’t, I’ll find you someone who can.
If you’re working on an aircraft, need another set of eyes to help you finish before you turn 85, or a voice of reason to cry to, that’s where I come in. I’ll come to the airport hangar, garage, or man cave, to check it out and get you going on your new baby.
Conditional Inspections
Is it that time of year again? I do a full breakdown of your aircraft over the course of 2-4 days to make sure you’re all set for the skies. Even if you’re out of date, we’ll still take a look and most likely be able to get you flying again. All condition inspections are subject to availability.

Primary Inspections
So, you bought a kit and started riveting. Congrats. It’ll be worth the wait and worth every penny… as long as you don’t start counting the pennies. If you’re having doubts about your skills, your build, or your emotions, I’ll help get you back on track with a primary inspection. All primary inspections are subject to availability.

Final Certificate
Finished up? As a DAR-F, I’ll help you apply and get organized for a visit to finally sign you off. Then, I’ll come to you and do a final walk-through of your build and your paperwork. Phase One is so close, you can probably smell it. This is a long time coming. A big congrats is on the way.

Repairs & Modifications advice
While most things can be done by you, the builder, sometimes you just need to let it go and have someone take that load off your shoulders. Do you really trust your hands with a hot cylinder head temp? How about a mag install with timing variances? In this area, I’ll make sure you get to the right people to handle repairs.

Pre-Buys
Found yourself in a deep Barnstorming rabbit hole and thinking about making a move? Let me talk to the seller and get some info on the plane. We’ll check logbooks and get an idea of how much you’re getting into. If you end up going forward, you’ll end up with not only a pre-buy, but a conditional inspection ready to go. Pre-buys are subject to availability.
You can’t pay me enough.
