I use Bob Gloris, my regular A&P/IA at KRYW. His number is (512) 733-3137. He's done a few pre-buys for other people that have asked me if I knew somebody. He does all the work on my plane too. It's a short flight to KGTU or even KAUS.

Bob actually did the pre-buy on my 150. I didn't realize he was still at it, he's a really good guy as well.

Ken gave me a call...nice guy! He can do it depending on timing. Sounds like all mechanics in the area are busy, which is a good thing! He gave me the names of a couple of others in the area, guess it’ll depend on whose available at the time the plane is ready. Thanks again!

I'm looking for a mechanic near Austin, preferably at KHYI for a pre-buy on a 152. Bob Gloris is willing to do it, but he's done a significant amount of work on the plane in the past and I'd feel better about my due diligence if I someone completely independent looked at it. Anyone?

(Ken is done and out of the business.)
