Posted this on the other forum but no help there...
I am thinking way ahead to the 5 year annual and rudder cable replacements. I have had great service locally for my annuals, oil changes, tire replacement, etc. I asked my mechanic and he has never taken the wings off or replaced cables, etc. on a DA40. Everything in life has a learning curve and tasks are much easier with experience. I would feel more comfortable taking my plane to an authorized Diamond service center which has done many of the more complicated maintenence tasks on a DA40. Falcon aviation is close to me but they have had BAD reviews discussed in previous forums. The other local service center is at the Bessemer, AL airport (KEKY),Premiere Aviation Group but I can't find any comments regarding their work. Any PIREPS ?
Anyone been to KEKY, Bessemer, AL for Diamond service?
