Winglers was very responsive, quoted me a very reasonable price, were available over a wide range of times, and even guided me and coached me through the oil change so I could do it myself next time. Juan was very knowledgeable, very thorough, very particular about his methodology, fastidious about the rules, and friendly and approachable. Customer experience was top notch, and I will go back to them next time even if I'm doing it myself.

My goal was to make sure the airplane was safe and reliable for normal flying and aerobatics. Jake and his mechanic Chirs found several items, including one very serious, that the last two mechanics missed. Jake is very thorough, knowledgeable, and a great communicator. He's also really responsive which is refreshing, Highly recommend.

The new owners are very responsive to customers, and their work is high quality. They have two really expert mechanics and supervise a stable crew. I've been using them since they bought the shop for all the repairs on my Commander. As with most aircraft maintenance businesses, at times they get backed up with many planes to work on, but I appreciate that Eric keeps me informed of the status of the work.

The amount of attention to detail, honesty, respectfulness is a rarity to find these days (I'm stunned that I actual have to mention these qualities).

They even have a grassy area with some picnic tables, trees and a viewing area. I came with my family and my kids had a blast watching the airplanes jet off. Parking was not an issue too, plenty of parking. The interior of the restaurant/business office is definitely more updated and nicer. I do plan to check out the open house/air show in the future since this is such a great place for families to view airplanes if you love airplanes! Highly recommend!

Abdi is the best! He has taken care of my 182P for decades. it still flies like it was new!read more

Here's the corrected version of the text:…read more Worst annual experience ever! Abdi broke things--the DG, the hydraulic system, the brakes, etc. In the process of covering up what he had broken, he broke more things and damaged the aircraft even further. The first time he told me the plane was ready, the nose wheel was installed backwards, and the brakes couldn't hold at anything over idle RPM. Who knows what else was wrong. I stopped checking after the brakes. The second time he told me the plane was ready, the magnetos were miss-wired, and the P lead wouldn't kill the engine. He also damaged the hydraulic system and couldn't fix it. After four months and my insistence on bringing another A&P into his shop to inspect it, he finally called LASAR for help.

Our pilot, Mateo, was fantastic! He kept everyone at ease with his humor and expertise, making the entire ride feel both safe and exciting. But I have to give a special shoutout to Jeff aka Bob with double O, aka "Boob," but really Bobo! He had us all laughing before sunrise and set such a fun tone for the whole experience. From takeoff to landing, everything was handled so professionally yet with such great energy. If you're thinking about taking a balloon ride in wine country, this is the one to do. The crew at Sonoma Sky Park truly makes it unforgettable!

It gave me pause! But, oh my goodness, this flight was one of the best, most delightful and magical experiences of my life! With Ignacio as our skilled and amiable pilot, the friendly and welcoming ground crew, a flight so smooth, serene and quiet (except for the occasional blasts of hot propane air to keep us flying), the whole hour was jaw droppingly beautiful. Whatever trepidation I felt the night before was immediately calmed. Most of us were novice balloon fliers. The basket with its four nested corners, let us be with our groups in cozy quarters. Our daughter invited us to join her and our 10 year old granddaughter for this bucket list experience. I am so grateful she did! Thank you, Ignacio, for a memorable, enjoyable, take-off, sweet flight and pro landing. We even touched down on a pond and lifted right back up into the air! We saw wildlife - rabbits, hawks, egrets, flocks of redwing blackbirds and starlings. Rolling hills of vineyards, chateaus, homes and gardens... I am still basking in the euphoria of watching the sunrise light up the world below us. What a gift to experience this part of paradise in this way.

Cessna 3912R cleared to lose elevator control or "emergency engine out ditch landing" those we're…read morethe words that I would use if me and my partners stuck with Aeroventure in Petaluma. After a few years with them and pretty shady work I recommended a new mechanic. I decided to go with Phil because Ive met him during my flying lessons out of Davis. Flying the same plane every other day (Cessna 65415) I wrote up a few sqwaks. The sqwaks were mostly resovled by Phil seem to do a good job of it. Since I've seen his work, I decided to do our annual inspection through him at Davis Air Repair. Boy am I glad I did. Let me mention a couple major things that should have been caught during the previous annuals but for some reason never came about. 1.Left magento dead at idle. Now I know why the engine floods at idle and felt like it was ready to stall at around 500rpm. I complained about it to my old mechanic and all she did was bump up the idle to 800 rpm. Nice way to hide a bad mag. or maybe she just skipped the whole idle mag. inspection. 2. Elevator cable locked up and frozen at pivot point. Humm, does it look like I have a death wish? WTF? I don't know how long it's been there but my new mechanic said it's seems to be so long that he only could free it a little bit but suggested to get it replaced. 3. Both left and right brake rotors shot and rusted almost all the way through. Wouldn't that be part of annual inspection? A brake system check? I know it didn't take 12 months for rotors to rust through. I can go on and on with my old mechanic. Phil at Davis Air Repair is different. He discovered all the problems wrote them down, had me come in, show, explain, and what my option are if any. He took the time to answer all the questions I had, and did not pressure us into making repairs that were unnecessary. It was like a 2 hour education session included in our annual. Now that I have gone through this with Phil. We pretty much said will be scheduling another annual with u in 12 months. Did I mention he is also very reasonably priced?

Called these folks and I believe the owner himself came out to my plane and volunteered to hand crank. He did it and while I was tending to the airplane he walked away. I couldn't kill my engine yet, so I secured the airplane and then went looking for him. Could not find him to pay him for his kindness and time. I don't believe he ever expected to be paid. A true airplane brother. Thank you so much!
