Hello everyone,
My name is Jonathan Walters and wish to give Ferdi a very big 'thank you' for
pre-introducing me to the crowd! Thanks Ferdi!
I am relocating to Taos in late July / Early August and will be in a position
to provide service and assistance to those who are in need.
For a short introduction I am third generation aviator and technician from both
sides of my parents, parents before them owned / repaired their own birds. Two
time Honorable vet of US Navy and Coast Guard aviation units with direct
hands-on with well over 100 variants of the US military's finest fixed and
rotary wing birds and more than 20 years civilian exp from 152's to my beloved
Falcon Jets with a smattering of 767, Dash 8's and CRJ's / Bombardier Business
in the mix.....and allot in-between ;-)
There is nothing I have not done from engine overhauls of nearly all varieties
(recip and turbine) to electrical / avionics build-ups and installs to heavy
structural repairs and STC mod incorporations.
As a way to say hello and bring in business and a reason for the locals and
foreigners (Non-Taos'ns) to visit Taos I am offering single engine fixed gear
annual inspections at a flat rate of $500 per inspection regardless of type.
For retract and all multi engine piston / single turbine I will beat area
competitors at a 75% of their rate. Labor will be a straight $50 per hour.
Feel free to email me to schedule and appt.
And I welcome owners to assist should they (you) wish - I advocate for the
informed owners are much more safe owner/operators.
There is a plan in the works for me to offer transponder recerts in the future
pending FAA Limited Repair Station authorization (no clue when that would
happen, wish I could tell you).
I am a one man show with little overhead and I do not mind passing on that
attribute to bring people in to Taos - I love the area and after decades of
traveling the planet this is the one place I actually want to place roots.
So fellows I would appreciate your business and any word of mouth to others who
are fretting about flying possibly hundreds of miles to leave their cherished
for who-knows-how-long, figure out a way home and back again to get their bird
and instead.....FLY TAOS!
Sincerely,
Jonathan WaltersA&P / IA / PP / INST
