I am looking for an expert Twin Cessna shop in the North West that understand the engine setup on a 421.

I would appreciate any recommendations.

Hilgard

ps I am considering flying it out to OH (Fortner AirPro) but would prefer something closer to home

Tom’s in Long Beach was excellent for my 421B, back around Y2K.

When I had my 414 I had Caddis Aviation out of my home base in Medicine Hat maintain it. He is a excellent mechanic and has a mobile rig so may work for you.
Let me know if you want contact info.

Check Arlin's at KBZN about 420 mi south of you. http://www.arlins.com/index.html

Full disclosure: I have 0 twin Cessna experience, but Arlin has been working on airplanes owned or been a partner in since the mid-1970's. Seen a lot of twin Cessna's go through his shop over the years.

All

Thanks for the info.

I decided to take the 421 to Ohio and have Steve Fortner do an annual. Bit of a trip, however after talking with Steve he seems quite knowledgeable and as he just started out he can help me in the next few weeks as well.

I have a good mechanic on my field that looks after 4 twin Cessna's, however I think it is a good idea to take a complex plane like this to an expert every 3 years or so.

Juan Oviedo at DFW Aero might be closer (KADS Addison, TX). they do lots of Twin Cessna work. cannot say enough about Juan- he was a magician with my 340.
