Looking for an IA in Colorado

Post by flyingredyeti »

Hello pilots & A&Ps! I am in need of an IA that is well experienced with the 170B in the Colorado Springs or Denver area. This is to perform a pre-buy inspection. Any recommendations?

I vote for Beegles, I have known Ray Burnham for a along time. We have done business for years. I bought my 170A out of his salvage yard. They have re-built many control surfaces for me.

Thanks again for the suggestion. Unfortunately, no one from Beegles had time to respond to my inquiry. So, I went with someone local on the field.
