We can overhaul, repair, test and carry out 500 hour inspections on all Bendix and Slick magnetos.
In addition, we have an alternator and starter motor test bench and approvals for their repair and overhaul.

In-house testing facilities

We have the capability to offer the following services in-house:

• Testing of pitot and static systems

Aircraft Parking and Storage

We have a limited number of permanent parking spaces available on the airfield, although due to planning restrictions we cannot allow aircraft movements on Sundays and Bank Holidays. If you anticipate that you will be unable to use your aircraft for a period of time and wish to leave it with us, we will ground run it each month up to running temperature to make sure everything continues to function correctly.

In addition to supporting private aircraft owners, we maintain fleet aircraft for a number of operators who require an efficient and straightforward approach to maintenance. We understand how expensive and frustrating aircraft downtime can be and therefore aim to minimise inconvenience for our customers. If required, we have an experienced ferry pilot available for both one-way and return trips if you are unavailable to deliver your aircraft for maintenance.
