Piston Maintenance at Prestwick

Postby phillc » Thu Nov 29, 2012 10:18 am

I was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of a good piston engine maintenance organisation at Prestwick (International!). Google hasn't really turned anything up.

I've emailed Skylark and Prestiwck Flying Club asking for the same information, but thought the combined experience of this forum worth asking also.

Thanks.

I believe there is only one maintenance organisation that deals with small GA planes - and thats at Prestwick Flight Center.
See http://www.prestwickflightcentre.com/Engineering.php

Adnan does mine (I'm a member of Prestwick Flying Club - not to be confused with Prestwick Flight Centre which has the same initials and does the maintenance :roll: )...

Of course, if you instead had a 737, there is another great on site facility (hence all those Ryan Air's that are parked there)...

Thank you! Very helpful.

And no, I don't have one of those big awful 737 things.

Adnan was great when I got stranded at EGPK a couple of years ago with an engine problem, and I'd also endorse Prestwick Flight Centre as a good bunch.
