Aviation Needs

The following items are urgent needs we have in aviation. We are eager to complete these repairs and improvements to our Piper Navajo. We also need our Cessna 182 flying soon for pilot training and proficiency. The 182 is significantly less expensive to operate than the Navajo. So we plan to use it for trips when the capacity and performance of the Navajo is not necessary.
