good avionics shops in the north east?

[bd32322]

Anyone have any good experiences with avionics shops in the North East ? Anywhere in between Maine to North Carolina. I am in Massachusetts.

Also does anyone know if there are shops that will let the owner work on avionics under supervision of an AP/IA? I know my mechanic is willing to let others work on their planes under his supervision - but he doesnt do avionics.

Thanks

I had a Garmin 430W and a GPSS system installed by NexAir Avionics located in Mansfield, MA.in my Mooney.  I would highly recommend them.  Their website is located at:  www.nexairavionics.com.  I do not know their position on owner assistance but I wuld tend to doubt it.

Charlie at Airport Radio at N43 does good work. Not sure about the owner assist but give him a call, very reasonable guy.

If I were and avionics shop owner, I'd charge extra for owner assisted work. How do they know how competent you are, and I imagine there are both liability and warranty issues. Questions, shop supplies, borrowed tools, and the like do add up. Heck, if you know what you're doing...just do it.

Good luck!

I don't know if Conrad will allow owner assisted work.  Worth asking though.

Limited but very good experience with the guys at Islip Avionics at ISP on Long Island.
