FAQ — AA Aviation Solutions

Question 1

Do you come to my hangar?

Accepted Answer

Yes — that's the whole idea. We bring our tools, equipment, and expertise directly to your hangar or tie-down. You don't need to fly to a shop or arrange a ferry flight. We service aircraft at your location throughout our coverage area.

Question 2

Are you a licensed A&P mechanic?

Accepted Answer

Yes. All work is performed by a licensed Airframe & Powerplant (A&P) mechanic. You'll receive the same quality of maintenance you'd expect from a full-service FBO — without the overhead costs.

Question 3

Are you fully insured?

Accepted Answer

Yes. AA Aviation Solutions carries comprehensive liability insurance on all work performed. Your aircraft is protected on every visit.

Question 4

What types of aircraft do you service?

Accepted Answer

We specialize in piston-engine general aviation aircraft — singles and light twins. If you're unsure whether your aircraft qualifies, give us a call and we'll let you know right away.

Question 5

What is included in a 100-hour inspection?

Accepted Answer

A 100-hour inspection follows the manufacturer's maintenance manual and FAA requirements. We inspect the airframe, engine, propeller, landing gear, flight controls, avionics, and all fluid levels — documenting everything in your aircraft logbook.

Question 6

How long does an on-site consultation take?

Accepted Answer

A consultation can be completed in as little as 30 minutes, depending on the extent of the work being assessed. More involved inspections or multi-system evaluations will naturally take longer. We'll give you a realistic time estimate before we arrive so you can plan accordingly.

Question 7

What is the Engine Health Package?

Accepted Answer

The Engine Health Package is a $799 comprehensive diagnostic that includes a spark plug inspection and gap test, borescope inspection of all cylinders, cylinder compression test, and an oil change with the oil sent to a lab for analysis. You receive a full written report and all inspection photos.

Question 8

Do you perform avionics work?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We handle basic avionics troubleshooting, electrical system repairs, and wiring work on-site. If you're experiencing an electrical issue or need wiring repaired, we can assess and address it at your location.

Question 9

How do I book a service?

Accepted Answer

The easiest way is to call or email us directly. You can also use the contact form on our website. We'll confirm your location, aircraft type, and schedule a time that works for you.

Question 10

Do you provide written estimates before starting work?

Accepted Answer

Always. We'll discuss the scope of work and provide a clear estimate before we begin. No surprise charges — if something unexpected comes up during the inspection, we'll contact you before proceeding.

Question 11

What areas do you serve?

Accepted Answer

Our standard service area covers general aviation airports and private airstrips within 150 miles of KLYH (Lynchburg Regional Airport). If you're outside that radius, we may still be able to come to you — travel beyond 150 miles is available by request and will include an additional fee depending on distance. Contact us with your location and we'll work something out.
