I am looking for recommendations of good Cessna 421 Shops in the
vicinity of Wisconsin (within a 300 nm radius od KISW would be nice).
Does anyone have any positive experiences to share? By "421 shop", I
mean a shop that has significant experience maintaining 421's and
preferably one where someone at the shop is qualified to test fly it
after maintenance.

TAS Aviation at Defiance, OH (DFI) specializes in twin Cessnas and is
299.7 nm from KISW (if you hop the lake).

Jet Air (the FBO in both Iowa City, IA and Galesburg, IL) maintains quite a
few twin Cessnas, several of which are 421s, I believe.

180 nm, or 206 -- your choice.

Call 'em at 319-248-1200 here at KIOW for more info.

I'd second Jay's recommendation on Jet Air. We've dealt with the
Galesburg guys and they've always been outstanding, whether it was
engine, avionics, or airframe issues.
They are a Cessna Single and Multi-Engine Service Center. I've seen
several twin Cessnas in their shop when we've had our 172 up there.

Galesburg - Contact Jim Ortery, Shop Manager (888) 253 8247
Iowa City - Contact Klay Johnson, Shop Manager (866) 453 8247
