Clay Lacy Aviation - John Wayne Airport

Clay Lacy Aviation - John Wayne Airport

(6 reviews)

Let me just say this , if I could give 50+ stars for service, accommodation, amenities, ambiance,…read morephenomenal customer service, comfort, spacious aircraft, knowledgeable I mean I can go on and to top it off Clay Lacy Aviation went way and beyond then they had too by what they did for myself and management team. So I usually use a particular Charter service because they have been really good to me and staff and I thought I would never use other but things happen, time is a changing and there's really nothing one can do about it but roll with it and make it work for youand that's just what happened and now I'm very pleased and so glad that it has.i have my two assistant's in my ear telling me to name names or company but I'm not that type of girl, I mean my followers know whom I've used and that's all that really matters ... if I'm using that company at the time, well I'll write, blog about , stream about it and definitely talk about on my pod cast's. So we were scheduled to fly out this morning but because of the conflict that waited upon our arrival that clearly didn't happen, well we're offered to be put on another aircraft with another company but they didn't have the credentials that I found to be suitable and the aircraft's didn't quite match my standards when chartering private. I know that sounds so pretentious and pompous but you become accustomed ro a certain kind of vibe a expectation if you will, and it just wasn't up to par no matter how much they cut the price or all that they had to offer but it just made them seem just a tid bit desperate which was even more scarier. A dear producer for Paramount picture , motion movie , music and film uses Clay Lacy Aviation who is one of the producers for the pageant org introduced us to the actual owners grown children who said he would see what he could do and within 30 mins Mr. Steve reached out to my Uncle and we were here in about a hour and 20 mins later we were at John Wayne Airport . The aircraft's were beautiful and a variety of them . Valet. Was front and center approach ing the Vehicle as were rolling in opening the doors greeting us offering their hands to help us off the vehicle ushering us inside to the reception and reassuring us that they had our luggage taken care of . Great service great looking men & women and they were so welcoming .We were able to able to see our beautiful craft that would be bringing us here and boy it didn't disappoint. Had I been aware of the situation, I could have boarded a few more staff. My Security Squad were happy with the accommodation, 3 of them were nervous due to the fact they had 1 never flew before 2 it's a private aircraft & 3 were excited because it was a private charter . We enjoyed the lounge its snacks and drinks and believe it our not our privacy. We boarded greeted by the cutest stewardess our pilots that would be transporting us and the craft was then explain in great depth answered every and any question one would have and they were answered with precise professional answers with a little humor .Take off was with no hitch the flight itself sailing and I know that there are a few of you that say you can't sail in the sky and my reply would be, YOU HAVENT FLOWN CLAY LACY AVIATION WERE FLYING ISNT JUST AN ADVENTURE WHEN YOUR SAILING THROUGH THE SKIES...... Landing was superb , no bouncing but gliding all the way down ! Thank you to everyone here at Clay Lacy Aviation until our return God Bless you all and peace always be with you.

Took a trip into Washington and took off from Clay Lacy Aviation. The staff there is wonderful and…read morefriendly. It's a small waiting area but it sure beats flying and waiting in the commercial areas of large airports! The lobby is nice and new, and they offer coffee, water, tea and snacks. I would gladly wait there again!

Leading Edge Avionics - LE took the panel down to the basics to be sure it was done right!

Leading Edge Avionics

(21 reviews)

I gave Leading Edge $60,000 in business installing equipment in my fleet of Cessnas over the course…read moreof a year. I had an extremely bad experience with them. They took a $15,000 deposit initially to order my avionics. After a few months they called and said it's on back order for another 3 months. They said 2 of the 4 items were in stock and they could install those while waiting for the rest. They installed the two items but billed me for the whole job and collected the $36,000. I never complained about this to them. They charged me $600 for a pitot static check on the plane, even though they knew it was only partially installed. They then charged me another $600 after the rest of the items arrived months later. Double charged! While waiting for more equipment i had ordered, I hired them to install avionics in my other planes. I was then told it would be another 3 months for the equipment for the original order. After the 9 months of waiting for this equipment, i discovered the equipment had recently arrived and was being used as loaners for other airplanes. I decided I didn't want this used equipment in my planes as I was being charged for new equipment. I contacted them to refund me the balance remaining on my account. I was told they would refund the $6,000. After waiting a month, I contacted them and was told their CPA had quit and the ceo Kathryn would issue the refund. When I contacted Kathryn, she decided to hit me with a 15% restocking fee on the order, keep my remaining balance of $6000, and had the audacity to send me a bill for $8,000 for additional restocking fee. Unreal! I have been involved in flight training at SNA since 1992 when Lenair was around. I will never recommend this company to anyone and advise people to stay far far away from them. Imagine spending $60,000 with a company and then they steal your money and send you a bill for more. This text is in response to Kathryns response to my review. Kathryn: I strongly disagree with your response. It is filled with misleading comments that I adjusted install dates. I did not. It was me who was flexible with your team adjusting them. It is your team that adjusted my installs because I kept getting notified by your team it would take longer to receive the avionics. In fact, while my install kept getting delayed, I threw more business at you. 2. The "extremely liberal" deposit of $15,000 is a significant amount of money to most people. It's good to know you don't consider this important as it is people's hard earned money. I forgot to mention you added $450 to the $15,000 because I used a credit card. Did you know: Civil Code section 1748.1 prohibits merchants from adding a surcharge (an extra fee) when customers pay by credit card instead of cash. 3. With regards to your comment about me recruiting away your technician. That's pretty hypocritical of you to say. "Your" technician had been working with me years before Leading Edge came to SNA and bought Western Avionics. He was working for Jays maintenance first. Jays spent years training him and then Leading Edge recruited him away from Jays Maintenance. Your company has now lost 2 long term managers because of managements bad practices by not making employees feel valued. Managers that I knew before leading edge began operations at SNA. Additionally, the friend that came to work for me didn't perform the installs on my airplanes contrary to your claims that I recruited him away because of his quality of work. 4. Quality of work. Lets talk about that. On the $36,000 install your team did on this aircraft, you left numerous panels on the belly of my airplane open. This exposed the belly to water while being washed the day after I took possession of the airplane. When Martin Aviation notified me, I immediately notified Mike on your team to which he frantically had new panels made for the aircraft. On another airplane, N172BR, there is a 1" empty space between COM 1 and 2. In fear I wouldn't see my airplane for weeks, I never brought it back to leading edge. 5. I was billed twice on N1399U for pitot static/transponder checks. You can do the right thing and return the balance owed to me. Nothing more nothing less. If I kept someone's $6,000 and then sent them another bill for $8,000, I'd be ashamed to show my face at the airport.

My experience was amazing. Started with phone conversations with Mike Bilby regarding panel…read moreupgrades to planes I was looking at. He is very busy but took the time to educating me and making suggestions. Then took the plane I bought in to have the avionics checked out making sure the autopilot was working as it should. Not exactly a big purchase at all, yet the owner Mike Manclark treated me like I had just had a complete Garmin upgrade. Great company, great people. Thanks so much. Gary H

Oscars design was elegant, classic, with clean lines and an attention to stiching that truly impressed me. I also needed this job done quickly--and sometimes quality can be sacrificed when you are on a short timeline--not here---the final product was A PLUS.

If you are even within sniffin' distance of KCMA (there is a lot of farming here so you can smell it sometimes, trust me) and you suspect somithin' is amiss with your Birdy you'd be best served to put er down in Camarillo and have her skirt lifted for a peek. You see for yourself what you get and if you are as pleased as I think you will be you ask Rick about his Platinum Plus service plan which is so extensive and broad in its scope that nobody is really sure what it is because it has no limitations or exemptions.
