Default Prebuy near Watsonville (WVI)

Hi all!

I?m looking for a someone to do a prebuy on an RV-6A at Watsonville. The aircraft has been maintained by United Flight Services, so I?m hoping to find a different shop to get fresh eyes on it. I?ve talked to a few shops around the field but haven?t found anyone experienced with RVs yet. Any recommendations?

Thanks!

Default Welcome to VAF

Jacob, welcome aboard the good ship VAF

Cute aviation play on words for your login name.

Give Randy Thorne a PM, he is well qualified to do the prebuy.

You could call Team Light Aviation at Rio Vista. Lee and Lars are on the forum here. I don't know if they would travel to Watsonville. Plenty of RV experience there.
