I saw a couple of planes he worked on, they looked great. I was quoted $5K to redo the interior in my 1973 182P a year or so ago. I intend to go there when the time comes. -jav |

They did one of the club planes, and the interior looks great, but either the owner or they skimped on the foam for the seats, so there are ratty old pillows in the plane so you dont have to sit on the seat frames. Since it is a club plane, I don't know where the blame lies. Except for the foam for the seats, the workmanship is very good. If you are going through the hassle of getting your seats re-covered, I'd spend the extra money for new/good foam. John -- John Clear - http://www.clear-prop.org/ |
