Prebuy mechanic referral N. Cali
I’m in the market for a 120/140 after selling my Stinson. I’m interested in a 120 in the San Francisco area and wanted to see if anyone could recommend an A&P or IA in that area. I’ve looked over the list of mechanics on the association website and have the contact info of several but wanted see if I could get some referrals. Thanks

There are a fair number of members in that area, hopefully someone responds. Randy Thompson is certainly knowledgeable, he's several hours north. Do you have his contact info?

Thanks, I just looked up his contact info on the mechanics list. One of the a&p’s on the list I had contacted said he doesn’t do aircraft work anymore but referred me to Aviation Specialties in Vacaville, does anyone have experience with them? They do say on their website they have experience in the 120.

Give them a call, who knows one of their A&P's may own a 120/140. If they do the pre-buy, you can always have them contact us or me. Also look in the library under 100hour/annual check list. There are some notes at the back that highlight special areas to inspect on the airplane.
