Does anybody know a good, reliable (and not atrociously expensive) avionics
shop in the Maryland/Northern Virginia area? I'm based at GAI, but
Aerotronics has been effectively out of business for months -- not
officially, but no one is ever home. :-(
I used to go the a shop at College Park, but that is now impossible, due the
the DC3 regulations (and they may well have closed down).
Recommendations??
TIA,

The shop that use to be at College Park (College Park Avionics, then
College Park Aeroservices) is now at Easton (Aeroservices - Easton).

Ditto...
I felt overcharged for the work completed on a KX-155, and I was charged an
hour labor just to have my old Garmin box shipped to Garmin...
I heard HORROR stories from two other owners about that shop, one stating he
caught them in lies about status of repair (showed up unannounced one
day...)
They get a bit of bigger iron contract work, and are completing a brand-new,
very expensive looking facility on the East Ramp. Now I know where all the
overcharges have gone...
