Rigging

Post by 58-172 »

Does anyone know of a A&P in the Michigan area that can check the rigging on my plane ? And rig it properly. I have a feeling that I have a lot of un-needed drag.

Thanks

I’ve been told that Brian Van Wagnen is pretty good with Cessnas. He hasn’t done any work for me, but he did speak at our EAA chapter meeting once and seems quite knowledgeable. He’s located on his own strip just southeast of Jackson.

Todd, at T&J Aviation in Hastings, MI, has done work on another airplane for me. I can certainly recommend him. 616-690-1295. Bill
