I have been using Jim Casey for the last 2 annuals on my Cherokee 180.
He is extremely reasonable, and is happy to do "owner-assisted" annuals.
That's important for me, as I have been charged for my own labor (!) doing
this at other shops. Some (really cheap) people don't like him, as he insists
on fixing things that are broken. Don't get the wrong impression; he's
very reasonable and he realizes that you want a *servicable* airplane,
not a *new* airplane.

Jim has 3 or 4 mechanics working for him, so things go pretty quickly. His
shop is usually busy, so you may have to schedule ahead of time to get in
for an annual. If you have him do your annual inspections, he will go out
of his way to assist you between annuals, like coming in on Sunday morning
to adjust the carb or replace the alternator belt.


If you'd like to discuss further drop me an email (take out the "nospam"
in my return address).
