120 Prebuy mechanic recommendations
Hello! I am planning a trip to Dyersburg, TN on 10/12 to look at N76790. Could anyone recommend a mechanic in that area who could perform a thorough prebuy inspection? Or is anyone familiar with that tail number?

Great news that you talked to David, and he's going to join you in taking a look at the airplane. Keep us posted on how it goes. You’ll find he’s an expert in what to look for on the design series.
